1954 Map of Day NW

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

San Pedro Bay dominates this section of Taylor County, Florida, revealing a vast wetland environment as it appeared during the mid-20th century. Based on 1950s planetable surveys with updates through the early 1990s, the map highlights the intricate drainage of the area, notably the Fenholloway River which flows through the southern portion of the quadrangle. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade in the southeast corner provides a clear link to the region's industrial past, likely associated with timber extraction or naval stores which were central to the local economy. A distinctive Spoil Bank cutting across the swampy terrain indicates human modification of the landscape, probably for water management or transportation access through the low-lying bay. These features together document a landscape where natural hydrology and industrial efforts to navigate it intersect.
