About this map

Tates Hell Swamp dominates this 1940s landscape in Franklin County, Florida, revealing a terrain defined by its complex hydrology and industrial history. The map trace several segments of an Old Logging R.R., which provide evidence of the timber extraction that shaped this environment in the mid-20th century. These rail lines weave through the wetland, connecting remote sections of the swamp to the surrounding drainage networks. The water system is anchored by Whisky George Creek in the southwest and the New R. in the northeast, with the Big Slough Br. cutting through the northern reaches. This 1:31,680 scale survey captures the area before modern preservation efforts, documenting the specific paths of the logging industry's infrastructure across the wetlands.
