About this map

Williston serves as the primary hub of this 2015 survey, situated at the convergence of several regional transit corridors. The landscape is characterized by its internal drainage and prairie formations, such as Horse Prairie and Priest Prairie, which punctuate the low-lying terrain. To the north, the small settlement of Raleigh sits along the SR 45 corridor, illustrating the linear development patterns common in this part of Florida.

For genealogists and local historians, the map provides precise locations for several burial grounds, including the Willis Family Cem and Orange Hill Cem near the town center, as well as the more outlying Wacahoota Cem and New Hope Cem. The presence of these sites, alongside water bodies like Johnson Lake and Mud Pond, offers a clear picture of the rural infrastructure and land use in this tri-county border region where Levy, Marion, and Alachua counties meet.
