1966 Map of Lake Ashby

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Lake Ashby dominates this central Volusia County landscape, surrounded by a complex network of wetlands and drainage canals typical of the Florida interior during the mid-1960s. The settlement at Alamana and the residential area of Lake Ashby Shores sit along the western edge of the water, while the Old Railroad Grade provides a linear trace of former transportation routes through the lowland terrain. To the east, the vast Spruce Creek Swamp is punctuated by slightly higher ground such as Watson Island and Rattlesnake Island. This 1966 survey, based on 1957 photogrammetry, captures a transitional era of water management, evidenced by the Lake Ashby Canal and Samsula Canal. Significant local landmarks include the Ashby Lookout Tower and Leffler Landing Field, reflecting both forestry management and local aviation infrastructure in this cypress-and-pine environment.
