1954 Map of Fivay Junction

About this map

The Pithlachascotee River and the upper reaches of the Anclote River define the watery landscape of central Pasco County in the mid-1950s. This survey, later updated with photorevisions, documents a region defined by its numerous wetlands and small water bodies such as Cabbage Slough, Bee Tree Pond, and Rock Lake. Small settlements like Gowers Corner and Fivay Junction serve as the primary crossroads for the area. Genealogists and local researchers will find the Fivay Cem and Bethel Ch located near the eastern boundary, providing specific landmarks for family history. The western portion of the map shows a distinct pattern of residential growth around Moon Lake and West Moon Lake, contrasting with the more dispersed rural character of the eastern marshlands and the shores of Crews Lake.
