1954 Map of St Marks

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

St Marks and the surrounding Wakulla County landscape are defined by the convergence of the Wakulla River and the St Marks River during the mid-1950s. This survey records the significant maritime and rail infrastructure of the era, including the Seaboard Air Line railroad terminating near the Oil Tanks and various landings such as Strickland Landing and Fig Tree Landing. A sense of the region's deep colonial and early American history is preserved in the Site of Old Fort St Marks, located at the strategic point where the rivers meet. Further inland, the map shows a network of family-named cemeteries like Stewart Cem, Mays Cem, and Magnolia Cem, alongside the New Mt Zion Ch. Much of the southern coastal reaches are protected within the St Marks National Wildlife Refuge, featuring intricate waterways like Salt Pan Creek and the East River Pool.
