1956 Map of Keentown

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Bunker Hill rises above the rural landscape of Manatee County, marking a terrain of winding waterways and remote landmarks as they appeared in the mid-1950s. The settlement of Keentown is situated near the confluence of Peacock Br and the North Fork Little Manatee River, a region defined by the intricate drainage patterns of Gravelly Creek and Long Branch. Local history is anchored by the Bunker Hill Ch and the nearby Keen Cem, which reflect the early community structure of this inland Florida territory. The map illustrates a transitional period where traditional landmarks like Peacock Hammock coexist with newer developments such as a Substation and a remote Landing Strip, showing the slow integration of utility infrastructure into the cattle and citrus lands before the major suburban expansions of the late 20th century.
