About this map

Leesburg and Fruitland Park serve as the primary hubs in this central Florida landscape, where a dense network of water bodies defines the local geography. The map illustrates a high concentration of cemeteries, such as Shiloh Cem, Lone Oak Cem, and Evergreen Memorial Gardens Cem, which provide significant points of interest for genealogical research. Smaller communities like Whitney, Montclair, and Bamboo are situated along key transport corridors, including the path of the railroad and numerous county roads like Co RD 466a.

Aviation and recreation are prominent, noted by the Flying Baron Estates Airport and the Continental Country Club Water Tower. The region is saturated with lakes, from the large Lake Harris and Lake Griffin to smaller named pools like Lake Robin Hood and Bugg Spring. This detailed survey reveals the transition between established urban centers and the surrounding wetlands and islands, including Magnolia Island and Flat Island.
