1968 Map of Waters Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Waters Lake and its surrounding wetlands dominate the western landscape of this 1968 survey, where a patchwork of ponds and lake basins such as Knighting Lake and Christmas Lake break up the north Florida terrain. In the late 1960s, the rural character of the Gilchrist Co and Alachua Co border is defined by scattered religious and community landmarks, including Center Hill Ch, Corinth Ch, and Union Ch. The map captures a moment of transition in transportation, showing both the active Seaboard Coast Line railroad and an Old Railroad Grade further north. Cultural heritage is rooted in locations like Osceola Cem and the small settlement of Buda, while the diverse ecology of the region is represented by the Dry Prairie Hammock and numerous smaller water bodies like Dinner Pond.
