1956 Map of Edgeville

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Edgeville sits at the heart of this mid-century survey, surrounded by the wet prairie and drainage networks of central Florida. The landscape is defined by the slow movement of water through systems like Owen Creek and Sand Branch, which weave through the low-lying terrain. Revisions from the mid-1980s are layered over the original 1956 topography, showing the progression of woodland and land use during a period of transition for rural Manatee and De Soto counties. The map captures the specialized agricultural and ranching character of the region, where surveyors carefully tracked minor elevation changes and water features to manage the productive but challenging Florida backcountry.
