1955 Map of Sumner

About this map

Rosewood and Sumner anchor the northern landscape of this Florida Gulf Coast survey, where the dense timber of Gulf Hammock meets the intricate tidal network of the Waccasassa Bay State Preserve. The map documents a rugged coastal transition zone defined by numerous small waterways such as Wilder Creek and Porpoise Creek that drain into the Waccasassa Bay. Local landmarks like the Suwannee Lookout Tower and Shiloh Cem provide key points of reference for genealogists and local historians studying the inland settlements. Offshore, the topography shifts to the maritime hazards and natural features of the Gulf, including Corrigan Reef and Waccasassa Reefs. The presence of Big Stake Gap and various points like Kelly Creek Point illustrates the complex, fragmented shoreline that has long shaped the navigation and economy of this portion of Levy County.
