1895 Map of Citra

About this map

Orange Lake and the surrounding wetlands dominate this late-19th-century landscape on the border of Alachua and Marion Counties. The region is characterized by expansive seasonal water bodies like Black Sink Prairie, Hawthorn Prairie, and Goneski Prairie, illustrating the unique hydrology of central Florida before modern drainage and development altered these basins. Two major rail lines, the Florida Southern R. R. and the Florida Central and Peninsular, provide the primary infrastructure for the citrus and mining economies.
