1959 Map of Poyner

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Withlacoochee River winds through the northern portion of this landscape, defining the boundary between Lake and Polk Counties. This interior Florida terrain is characterized by the low elevations of Withla and the slight rise of Rattlesnake Ridge. Small settlements such as Eva, Berry, and Poyner are scattered along the rail and road network, providing a look at the rural communities of the late 1950s. Transportation history is prominent on this sheet, with the active Seaboard Coast Line running north-south, contrasted by an Old Railroad Grade and the Rock Ridge Road. Local community life is anchored by landmarks like the Green Pond Ch, while water management is evidenced by the Gaging Sta on the river. The map's revisions highlight changes in the landscape through the 1970s, particularly in the wetlands and drainage patterns.
