1964 Map of Mayport

About this map

Fort George Island and its surrounding marshlands anchor this mid-1960s coastal survey, revealing a landscape defined by significant historical preservation and maritime utility. The map documents the Kingsley Plantation (State Historical Memorial) and the Zephaniah Kingsley House (State Historical Memorial), highlighting the area's transition from an 18th-century plantation economy to a site of public memory. To the south, across the St Johns River, the Naval Station and Mayport harbor indicate the region's strategic importance. The complex hydrology of Sisters Creek, the Intracoastal Waterway, and Fort George Inlet illustrates the shifting sands and tidal flats of the Florida coastline. Inland, smaller settlements like Cedar Point and Braddock sit amidst Cabbage Hammock Swamp and Greys Swamp, while local genealogy is represented by Talbot Island Cem and Anderson Cem.
