1991 Map of Picolata

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The eastern shore of the ST Johns River in St. Johns County defines this coastal landscape, where the historic settlement of Picolata sits near the site of Spanish-era fortifications. Moving inland, the topography is marked by a series of small riverside communities and landings, including Magnolia Landing and Bass Haven. The map reveals a transition from the wide river waters to the marshy tributaries of Sixmile Creek and Wards Creek, which snake through the eastern interior. An Old Railroad Grade cuts across the center of the sheet, providing evidence of former timber or transportation corridors that once linked these river settlements to the state's interior. Local genealogy is well-represented through numerous rural houses of worship, such as Mt Pleasant Ch and St Joseph Missionary Ch, alongside the Bakersville Cem, anchoring the social history of these unincorporated coastal reaches.
