1957 Map of Miccosukee NE

About this map

The Georgia-Florida state line bisects this 1957 survey, illustrating a landscape of scattered rural congregations and isolated water bodies. Numerous churches such as Mercy Seat Ch, Antioch Ch, and St Philip Ch serve as local landmarks across the undulating terrain of Thomas and Leon counties. The hydrology of the region is defined by a series of named ponds and creeks, including Original Pond, Murray Pond, and Gin House Pond, which drain southward toward the larger Foshalee Lake. The distribution of these water sources and religious sites, alongside family-named markers like Copeland Cem and Spring Hill Cem, provides a clear view of the mid-century settlement pattern in this agricultural borderland before significant modern development altered the local road networks and land use.
