About this map

St Joseph Bay and the Gulf Coast's intricate hydrological network define this wartime survey of Gulf County. The Intracoastal Waterway cuts a straight path through a landscape dominated by swamp and sloughs, connecting the Wetappo region to the interior. Small settlements and specialized locations, such as Overstreet and the isolated Ringjaw Camp, punctuate the wetlands, while a Fire Tower stands as a sentinel over the low-lying terrain. The coastal margin is marked by prominent Sand Dunes along the bay, transitioning into a labyrinth of named water features like Harrison Lake and Whitfield Slough. One notable genealogical landmark is the Sharp Hardy Homestead, positioned near the headwaters of Long Branch, providing a rare specific reference to local residency and land use during this era.
