About this map

The Manatee River and its intricate drainage network define this inland portion of Manatee County in the early 1970s. Small rural settlements like Rye and Manhattan are visible along the riverbanks and creeks, while Oak Knoll sits further east. The landscape is a mixture of wetlands and drier elevations, notably the Sand Prairie in the northwest corner. Waterways such as Gamble Creek and Harvey Prong dominate the topography, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Florida peninsula before extensive modern development.
