About this map

Lake Weir and the surrounding citrus and lake country of Central Florida define this landscape, where the borders of Marion, Lake, and Sumter counties converge. The town of Lady Lake serves as a southern anchor, surrounded by a dense network of smaller bodies of water including Lake Geneva, Lake Ella, and Lake Alice. To the north, the settlement of Weirsdale sits near the shores of Lake Weir, connected by a primary north-south corridor that passes through Conant.

Genealogists will find a cluster of burial sites including Forest Hill Cem, Stanton Cem, and Greenwood Cem, alongside community landmarks such as St Johns Ch and Lake Weir Sch. The map illustrates a period of mid-century residential expansion, visible in the development of Orange Blossom Hills and Orange Blossom Hills South, set against a backdrop of local industry evidenced by a Sandpit and Claypit.
