1956 Map of Crewsville SW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Fish Branch winds through the northwestern corner of this landscape, marking a terrain defined by intermittent drainage and low-lying wetlands. The survey reveals a sparsely settled interior where the county line between Hardee and DeSoto counties cuts through a series of shallow depressions and prairie. Water management and natural hydrology dominate the map, from the presence of a Flowing Well in the north to the south-flowing course of Mossy Gully and Joshua creek. The mapping of these minor tributaries and gully systems provides a detailed record of the Florida interior before significant land development, showing a network of unimproved roads and light-duty paths that served the agricultural interests of the mid-20th century.
