1943 Map of Elfers
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
The Pithlachascotee River winds through the northern reaches of this coastal Florida landscape, marking a period of early development near New Port Richey and the community of Elfers. Surveyed in the early 1940s, the map illustrates a region defined by its complex hydrology, where the Anclote River and numerous sloughs like Duck Slough carve through the terrain toward Salt Lake and the massive expanse of Lake Tarpon. The transport network of the era is clearly visible, featuring the Seaboard Air Line Railroad and the historic Dixie Highway, alongside an Old Railroad Grade that hints at earlier industrial timber or transit routes.
