1945 Map of Red Head

About this map

The Choctawhatchee River defines the northwestern boundary of this mid-1940s landscape, where the rural communities of Red Head and Ebro anchor the local social geography. Along the river, Rocky Landing and Douglas Bay indicate a history of water-based activity, while the interior is a complex network of wetlands and creeks such as Log Creek, Botheration Creek, and Burnt Mill Creek. The presence of the Oak Grove Ch, Red Head Sch, and the Ebro Cem provides critical points of interest for genealogists tracing family roots in this part of Florida. Much of the southern terrain is dominated by the Pine Log State Forest, marked by the Moody Fire Tower overlooking the wooded plains and ponds like Blue Pond. The map captures the region just as the established Base Line survey demarcated the borders between Washington and Bay counties.
