1958 Map of Italia

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Nassau River and its intricate network of tributaries, including Thomas Creek and Plummer Creek, dominate this coastal Florida landscape at the border of Nassau and Duval counties. The area is characterized by vast wetland systems like Tom Mann Swamp and Boggy Creek, where the transition from water to land is marked by local landmarks such as Smiths Point and Halfmoon Island. Settlement is sparse, anchored by the community of Italia and the nearby Hero along the Buccaneer Trail. To the south, the emergence of modern infrastructure is evident near the Jacksonville International Airport. Cultural life in these rural reaches centers on sites like Harpers Chapel, Barford Ch, and Ogden Cem. The presence of the Jacksonville Penal Farm and the Seaboard Coast Line railroad reflects the region's mid-century correctional and transportation logistics before the full expansion of the Jacksonville metropolitan area.
