1994 Map of Ellisville

About this map

Olustee Creek meanders along the boundary of Columbia and Union Counties, defining the southeastern landscape of this Florida region. The area is characterized by scattered rural settlements such as Ellisville, Mason, and Myrtis, which are linked by a network of local roads including Old Haltiwanger Road and Payne Road. This 1990s-era survey reveals a community deeply rooted in its local landmarks and spiritual centers, evidenced by numerous burial grounds and houses of worship like Hopeful Ch Cemetery, Everybodys Tabernacle, and New Zion Church. To the west, Mt Tabor rises near the Mt Tabor Church, while the northern reaches feature the Rose Creek Lookout Tower overlooking Rose Creek. The integration of traditional family-named cemeteries such as Parnell Cemetery and Kerce Cemetery alongside the winding course of Swifts Creek provides a detailed view of the rural heritage of the Florida interior.
