2012 Map of Jena

About this map

The Steinhatchee River defines the western edge of this coastal Florida landscape, winding southward toward the Gulf of Mexico. This 2012 survey illustrates the distinct settlement patterns of Dixie County, where the riverside community of Jena contrasts with the inland crossroads of Broscan and Jonesboro. The geography is shaped by numerous watercourses, including Sand Hill Cr, Boggy Cr, and Boat Cr, which drain the low-lying wetlands. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several remote burial sites such as Mingo Cem, Steinhatchee Cem, and Mount Olive Cem. Industrial and infrastructure markers, like the McCain Lookout Tower and the small Ancient Oaks Airport, highlight the region's reliance on timber management and private aviation in this era of the early 21st century.
