1954 Map of Mallory Swamp SW

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Mallory Swamp dominates this landscape along the border of Lafayette and Dixie Counties, revealing an intricate network of wetlands and intermittent waterways as they appeared in the early 1950s. The terrain is characterized by slightly elevated ground such as Knife Hammock and Buck Island, which stand as landmarks within the broader marshy environment. Water moves slowly through systems like Rawhide Bog and Pooles Bay, eventually feeding into defined channels like Eightmile Creek. This survey captures the region's character before significant modern drainage or development altered the natural hydrology, providing a detailed look at the original wetland margins including Mud Swamp and the headwaters of Wolf Creek. The map serves as a valuable record of the primitive road and drainage patterns that historically defined this portion of the Florida Big Bend interior.
