1958 Map of Madison SE

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Patterson Sink and a complex network of solution depressions characterize this landscape in the late 1950s, where the limestone geology of northern Florida is on full display. The area is defined by its numerous named ponds and sinks, including Mitchel Sink and Johnson Sink, which reveal the active karst processes common near the Suwannee River. Human settlement is sparse and focused around community centers like Midway Ch and its adjacent Cem, as well as Bethel Cr Ch further south. The drainage patterns are dictated by short runs such as Norton Creek, Blacksnake Creek, and Mill Creek, which flow through the timbered terrain. A prominent Lookout Tower stands near the intersection of the Madison Co and Lafayette Co line, serving as a vital landmark for fire management in this densely wooded region.
