1958 Map of Wulfert

About this map

Sanibel Island and Captiva Island meet at a narrow maritime gateway in this 1950s survey. The settlement of Wulfert sits near the northern tip of Sanibel, characterized by a complex network of mangrove-lined waterways like Dinken Bayou and Hardworking Bayou. This era of the landscape predates major development, showing a configuration of the shoreline where Blind Pass and Old Blind Pass served as the primary connection between the Gulf of Mexico and Pine Island Sound. The map reveals the intricate geography of the barrier islands, including the presence of Buck Key and Runyan Key tucked into the protected waters of Roosevelt Channel. Isolated features such as a Flowing Well on the southern portion of the sheet point to early infrastructure in this subtropical environment.
