1956 Map of Duette

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The small settlement of Duette sits at the junction of State Route 62 and State Route 675, serving as a rare focal point in this 1950s landscape of wetlands and drainage patterns. The map captures the remote character of the border between Manatee Co and Hardee Co, an area defined by the meandering headwaters of the region’s major water systems. The North Fork Manatee River and East Fork Manatee River branch through the western half of the quadrangle, while the eastern section is dominated by the winding path of Horse Creek and its tributary, West Fork Horse Creek. These watercourses reveal the natural topography of Florida's interior before significant modern development, showing the complex network of sloughs and marshes like those surrounding Brushy Creek. For local historians, the sheet provides an essential look at the rural road networks and surveying lines that established the early twentieth-century character of these counties.
