About this map

Crescent Lake dominates the eastern landscape of this Putnam County survey, framing a string of lakeside settlements connected by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad. The town of Crescent City serves as the primary hub, where local infrastructure like Crescent City High Sch and North Park are established near the shores of Stella Lake. Moving north, the interconnected communities of Lake Como and Pomona Park reveal a pattern of development tied to the rail line and the smaller interior water bodies like Lake Broward.

Rural industry and local landmarks are scattered throughout the pine-filled terrain, including a Sandpit near Huntington and the Thunderbird Airpark further west. For those researching family history, the map precisely locates several burial grounds, such as Eden Cem and the Pomona-Lake Como Cem. The southwestern corner transitions toward the St Johns River, marked by the community of Georgetown and the marshy drainages of Jumping Gully and Tiger Branch.
