1954 Map of Salem

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Atlantic Coast Line railroad cuts a sharp diagonal through this 1954 landscape of Taylor County, Florida, connecting the small settlements of Athena, Carbur, and Salem. This low-lying coastal plain is characterized by a complex network of wetlands and intermittent drainages, including the expansive area known as The Meadows and the winding course of Warrior Creek. Small-scale features such as Clay Hole Pond and Lily Pond dot the terrain, while the local social fabric is anchored by the Athena Ch and the Salem Cem. The map reveals a rural economy tied to the land and the rails, with various benchmark stations like BM 54 and BM 52 recording the subtle elevation changes across this forested and marshy environment.
