1943 Map of Seminole Hills

About this map

The Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the center of this 1943 landscape, serving as a critical artery just inland from the Gulf coast. The map illustrates a transitional period for Bay County, where coastal development at Sunnyside and Hollywood Beach meets the dense wetlands of the interior. North of the waterway, the terrain is defined by a network of drainage features like Broomstraw Branch and Doe Head Swamp, alongside the small settlements of Laird and Seminole Hills. At the western edge, the boundary with Walton County is marked by Powell Lake and Philips Inlet, where freshwater systems meet the Gulf of Mexico. This survey, conducted by Lee Morrison and Chas. I. Hudson, documents the topography of the Florida Panhandle before the post-war building boom, highlighting rural landing points such as County Line Landing.
