1948 Map of Munson
USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The Blackwater State Forest dominates this post-war survey of Santa Rosa County, revealing a landscape defined by its timber and water resources. The settlement of Munson serves as a central hub, complete with the Munson High School and a nearby Munson Lookout Tower for forest surveillance. The map traces the intricate drainage of Big Coldwater Creek and Sweetwater Creek, which carve through the dense pine lands. Genealogists will find significant value in the scattered rural cemeteries such as Black Cem, Hobbs Cem, and Sullivan Cem. The presence of small community centers like Sellersville and McClellan near the Alabama-Florida state line illustrates the late-1940s distribution of rural Florida homesteads before more modern development altered these forest-dependent communities.
