1945 Map of Smith Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

The Ochlockonee River forms the central spine of this landscape, carving a winding path through the dense wetlands and timberlands of the Apalachicola National Forest. This 1945 survey reveals an economy and way of life deeply tied to the river, evidenced by a series of specialized river access points including Blazed Pine Landing, Upper Langston Landing, and Big River Landing. These landings, along with the presence of East Camp and Poplar Camp, suggest the active maritime and logging operations of the mid-1940s. Away from the banks, the community centers around the Smith Creek Sch and Mt Elon Ch, while the Jewel Fire Tower stands watch over a complex network of bays and branches such as Tin Top Bay and Tiger Creek. The map meticulously details the transition between Liberty and Wakulla counties, capturing the intricate hydrology of backwater lakes like Frog Lake and X-L Lake.
