1955 Map of Tidewater

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Tidewater serves as the primary rail settlement on this mid-century survey of the Florida Gulf coastal plain, situated along the diagonal path of the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of wetlands and seasonal drainages, including Crow Rookery Slough, Tenmile Creek, and Spanish Branch, which wind through the forested Arbor Wolf area. The eastern portion of the quadrangle transitions into a series of distinctive lakes and prairies along the Levy and Marion County line, featuring Bonable Lake and the marshy expanse of Cypress Prairie. Local history is anchored by the Sand Pond Cem located near Sand Pond, providing a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing family ties in this transition zone between the swampy interior and the lime-rock uplands.
