About this map

The Little Withlacoochee River and its associated wetlands define the southern reaches of this landscape near Richloam, where the terrain transitions into a dense network of marshes and bays. Further north, the settlement of Webster serves as a local hub, flanked by the Garden of Memories Cem and Oak Grove. The hydrology of the area is particularly complex, featuring numerous water bodies such as Big Gant Lake, Matchett Lake, and Giddon Lake, alongside significant swampy depressions like Indianhouse Swamp and Yankee Swamp.

Genealogists and local historians can find several established burial sites across the quadrangle, including the Stewart Chapel Cem and the Linden Cem located near the community of Linden. The presence of the Gant Lake Canal and drainage features like Akins Sawgrass illustrates the historical management of this low-lying Florida terrain for settlement and transport between hubs like Bushnell and Center Hill.
