1938 Map of De Funiak Springs

About this map

De Funiak Springs serves as the primary hub of this Walton County landscape, where the Louisville and Nashville RR follows the route of the Old Spanish Trail across northern Florida. The 1930s terrain is defined by a dense network of creek systems, including Alaqua Creek and Bruce Creek, which supported early industrial sites like Lossing Mill and Sowells Mill Pond. This survey captures a rural social geography marked by numerous one-room schoolhouses such as Arcadia Sch and Albert Temple Sch, alongside remote community centers like Gillie Chapel and Macedonia. The southern portion of the map transitions toward the coast through the Choctawhatchee Nat For, reaching the settlements of Freeport and Portland near the head of the bay system. The inclusion of the Tallahassee Base Line across the southern townships provides a rare glimpse into the fundamental surveying framework of the Florida Panhandle.
