1952 Map of Pardon Island

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Pardon Island and the neighboring Three Cabbage Island emerge from the waters of Mosquito Lagoon in this 1952 study of the Florida coastline. The map records a sparsely developed landscape where the small settlement of Pardon sits near the marshy edge of Pardon Slough. The intricate network of coastal waterways is detailed through features like Widgeon Bay and Scorpion, showing the primitive state of the barrier islands before significant modern development. A lone Tower stands near the boundary between Volusia and Brevard counties, marking one of the few artificial landmarks on this stretch of the Atlantic Ocean shore. This survey, compiled from 1948 aerial photography and 1949 field checks, preserves the exact topography of these shifting coastal wetlands and hammocks during the mid-century era.
