2018 Map of Lulu

About this map

Lulu and Guilford anchor this landscape along the Columbia and Union County line, where the rural character of northern Florida is defined by its intricate wetlands and bay systems. The terrain transitions from the open waters of Palestine Lake and Fisher Lake to the dense, saturated environments of the Swift Creek Swamp. These natural features have historically shaped the settlement patterns and road networks, such as SE Countyline Rd and Croft Rd, which navigate around the low-lying reaches of Olustee Creek and Swift Creek. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the locations of several community landmarks, including Douglas Cemetery, New Zion Cemetery, and Gillen-Allen Cemetery. The presence of distinctive terrain markers like Cedar Hammock and Center Bay highlights the persistent wetland geography that continues to influence the region's development.
