About this map

Nassau River tides dictate the geography of this 1950s coastal survey, where the boundary between Nassau County and Duval County follows the twisting main channel. Small settlements such as Nassauville and Hedges are established on the higher ground between sprawling marshlands and intricate tidal systems like Lofton Creek and Edwards Creek. The interior landscape is marked by the Seaboard Air Line RR and a network of named roads including Yellow Bluff Road and Grandaddy Road. Local family history is preserved at sites like Bowles Cem and Ferreira Cem, alongside rural congregations at Spring Hill Ch and Prince Chapel. The survey records a specific coastal economy of river landings, including Jerry Landing and Homer Landing, and the early development of Yulee Heights and Pecan Park.
