1961 Map of Hahira East

About this map

The Southern railroad corridor anchors the western edge of this landscape, connecting the town of Hahira through small trackside settlements like Tillman and Mineola. This 1961 field check reveals a community transitioning toward highway-oriented growth, evidenced by the Mineola Interchange and the emergence of residential areas like Highland Heights and Five Points. The winding Withlacoochee River and its tributaries, including Bay Branch and Cherry Creek, dictate the rural topography, separating cultivated fields from more densely wooded lowlands.
