About this map

The town of Umatilla serves as the central hub of this Lake County landscape, situated where the southern edge of the Ocala National Forest meets a dense network of freshwater lakes. The topography is defined by the expansive Lake Yale and numerous smaller bodies such as Ella Lake, Island Lake, and Lake Enola. The local economy of the mid-1960s is reflected in the land use, showing multiple sandpits and a claypit near Dona Vista, while the Seaboard Coast Line railroad provides the primary industrial corridor through the region.

Genealogical and local history details are abundant, with sites like the Glendale Cem and Umatilla Cem clearly marked. The survey also documents the residential expansion of the era, including Dalhousie Acres and the northern reaches of Eustis, alongside community fixtures like the High Sch and Southside Sch. Several parks and landmarks, including Guerrant Park and Ft Mason, highlight the recreational and historical footprint of the area during this period.
