1960 Map of Rock Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The settlement of Rock Ridge serves as the focal point of this Central Florida landscape, situated near the Sumter Co Polk Co and Lake Co Polk Co boundaries. This territory is defined by the expansive Withlacoochee River Swamp, where the Withlacoochee River winds through dense terrain alongside locally named features like Hart Hammock and Strand Hammock. The human imprint on this marshy environment is marked by the Little Flock Ch and a network of several alignments of the Old Railroad Grade, which suggest a history of timber extraction or earlier industrial transport through the wetlands. Drainage patterns are meticulously documented through systems such as Cumbee Drain, Mattress Drain, Pony Creek, and Devils Creek Swamp, illustrating the complex hydrology of the region before modern development patterns fully took hold.
