1956 Map of Octahatchee

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Withlacoochee River defines the western edge of this territory, where the Florida-Georgia state line meets at the Watson Line. The landscape is a mosaic of wetlands and small lakes, centered on the waters of Lake Octahatchee and the small settlement of Octahatchee. This mid-century survey illustrates a rural community organized around its social foundations, with education anchored by Bellville High Sch in the northwest and spiritual life centered at Triumph Ch, Mt Olive Ch, and Burnham Ch. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of family burial grounds such as McCall Cem and Blair Cem, offering a spatial record of local heritage before later developments altered the rural road patterns and property lines of Hamilton County.
