1965 Map of Sanford SW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Wekiva River winds through a landscape of expansive wetlands and scattered settlements in this mid-1960s survey. The area is defined by the convergence of the Seminole Swamp and Wekiva Swamp, where numerous spring-fed waterways like Black Water Creek and Rock Springs Run feed into the central river system. The settlement of Ethel and its local cemetery appear near the center, while the Atlantic Coast Line railroad cuts across the terrain, serving Cassia Station in the west. This transportation corridor follows the path of the Old Railroad Grade, illustrating the shift from early logging or transit routes to modern infrastructure. To the east, a cluster of named lakes including Sylvan Lake, Lake Markham, and Yankee Lake indicates early residential development and water-oriented land use along Markham Road.
