2024 Map of Griffins Corner

About this map

Lemon Grove and Griffins Corner anchor this rural Hardee County landscape, where agriculture and cattle ranching dominate the Florida interior. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of waterways, most notably the winding paths of Charlie Creek and Little Charlie Creek as they flow through the central and eastern portions of the quadrangle. For genealogists and local historians, the Hart Cem near Maude Rd provides a specific point of interest for family research. The map reveals a pastoral infrastructure of named roads such as Peeples Rd and Colin Poucher Rd, which connect scattered homesteads and ranches. Tributaries like Buckhorn Creek and Mac Branch drain the low-lying areas, illustrating the drainage patterns essential to Florida's central ridge ranching history.
