About this map

Grand Ridge and Cypress anchor this part of Jackson County, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of wetlands, ponds, and sloughs. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Williams Slough and Ocheesee Pond to several named high points like Honey Hill. This map reflects the enduring rural character of the Florida Panhandle in the late 20th century, showing numerous small churches such as Antioch Ch and Shady Grove Ch that served the surrounding agricultural and timber communities.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of family-named landmarks and small burial grounds, including Stephens Cem, Wester Cem, and Walters Cem. The map also captures the local industrial footprint with several sandpits and a Gravel Pit near Edenfield Bay. Water bodies like Scott Hammock Pond and Lake Finney dot the area, illustrating the complex drainage patterns common to this limestone-influenced region.
