1944 Map of Dinner Island

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The boundary between St Johns County and Flagler County defines this mid-century Florida landscape, dominated by a complex network of wetlands and pine islands. The Florida East Coast railway and the historic Dixie Highway serve as the primary north-south corridors, passing through the small settlement of Espanola and past the Neoga Sta. This 1940s survey illustrates a region where transportation routes were tightly constrained by the natural environment, particularly the expansive Big Fish Tail Swamp and Little Fish Tail Swamp. Away from the main tracks, more isolated locales such as Strickland Camp and Shell Bluff are visible. The terrain is a mosaic of elevated hammocks and islands, including Turkey Island and Old Dinner Island, which provided dry ground for early inhabitants amidst the surrounding marshes. The presence of the Old Kings Road further emphasizes the historical depth of this travel corridor.
