1949 Map of Penney Farms

About this map

Penney Farms serves as the focal point of this Clay County landscape, appearing here as it was surveyed in the late 1940s with mid-1970s updates. The settlement pattern is defined by the Memorial Homes and the nearby Penney Farms Sch, illustrating a structured community layout set against a backdrop of complex water systems. The hydrography is particularly dense, with the South Fork and Black Creek converging to the west, while Greens Creek and Atas Creek dominate the central and southern reaches. A notable mark of change is the Penney Farms Landing Field (Aban'd), indicating an aviation site already out of use by the time of the original survey. The inclusion of a Fire Tower and multiple water tanks suggests the essential infrastructure required for managing this North Florida terrain during the mid-20th century.
