1945 Map of Woods

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

The small settlement of Woods anchors this 1945 survey of the Florida panhandle, situated at a junction near Telogia Creek. The landscape is dominated by the dense wetlands of the Juniper Swamp and the expansive Apalachicola National Forest, where a network of seasonal branches like Johnson Branch and Mill Branch feed into the winding New River. The map provides a detailed look at the rural infrastructure of Liberty County toward the end of the war, notably marking Smokehouse Crossing at a ford on Gully Creek. To the south, the terrain transitions into a series of distinctive lowland bays and ponds, including Buggar Bay, Shuler Bay, and Washington Bay, alongside isolated high ground such as Memery Island and Sheep Island. This mid-century view preserves the locations of remote family crossings and named water features that characterized the region before modern drainage and road development altered the hydrology.
