1945 Map of Dead Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Dead Lake basin dominates this mid-century landscape at the intersection of Gulf, Calhoun, and Liberty counties. The watery geography is defined by the winding Apalachicola River and the Chipola Cutoff, which weave through a dense network of wetlands including Tenmile Swamp. This 1945 edition, based on surveys by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Army Corps of Engineers, illustrates a transition from a river-dependent economy to one more reliant on road infrastructure.
