About this map

The Arrant Settlement and Baker Settlement are prominent features in this 1950 survey of Holmes County, Florida, illustrating the rural family-centric land patterns of the mid-century. The landscape is a dense network of water bodies and hills, from Andrews Lake in the northwest to the numerous sand ponds like Hood Sand Pond and Little Sand Pond in the southeast. Transportation is anchored by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad and the Old Spanish Trail crossing the lower corner of the sheet. Religious and educational centers such as Cedar Springs Sch, Hudson Hill Ch, and Otter Creek Ch appear as vital community hubs. Several named hills, including Nancy Padgett Hill and Bunker Hill, provide topographic context to this area defined by its numerous "bays" and creek systems.
