About this map

The Suwannee River carves the northern border of this North Florida landscape, defining the boundary between Lafayette and Suwannee counties. Near the river's bend, groundwater systems are evident through numerous named springs and sloughs, including Peacock Springs and Telford Spring. The town of Mayo serves as a central hub, surrounded by a network of smaller communities like Alton and Luraville.

Tracing family lineages is supported by several documented burial sites such as Bethel Cem, Wayfare Cem, and Ivey Cem. The region's transport history is visible in the paths of the NW Old Railroad Trl and the Old Rail Rd, which converge near San Pedro Junction. Extensive pond systems, like Tenmile Pond and Dinner Pond, dot the southern terrain, illustrating the karst topography of the Florida panhandle interior.
