About this map

The Suwannee River carves a winding path through the borderlands of Suwannee and Lafayette Counties, defining a landscape of subterranean springs and karst features. This territory is characterized by numerous natural springs including Running Springs, Convict Spring, and Royal Springs, which emerge near the riverbanks. The settlement of Midway anchors the southern portion of the map, clustered around the Midway Baptist Church and its associated Midway Baptist Church Cem.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-preserved burial sites across the landscape, from the Parker Grant Cem in the north to the Elliott Cem and Sand Pond Cem. The presence of small airstrips like the Suwannee Belle Airport and Suwannee Farms Airport indicates the modern rural character of the region. The interior is dotted with significant water bodies such as Townsend Pond and Garner Lake, which interrupt the wooded reaches of Tenmile Hollow.
