About this map

Suwannee County in the mid-1950s is defined here by a network of small, rural gathering places dispersed across a landscape of sandy depressions and forest cover. This survey captures a specific social geography where the local schoolhouse and church often shared a name or occupied the same small clearing, such as Shiloh Sch and St James Sch. Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of family and community burial grounds, including Claywood Cem, Smith Cem, and Mt Willing Cem. The prevalence of small congregations like Claywood Ch, Friendship Ch, Philadelphia Ch, and New Zion Ch suggests a deeply rooted, decentralized community structure typical of this region of North Florida before major suburbanization changed the rural character of the land.
