About this map

Lake Rousseau and the Withlacoochee River dominate this landscape on the border of Levy, Citrus, and Marion counties. This 1991 edition captures the intricate hydraulic engineering of the region, featuring the Barge Canal, the Inglis Lock, and the Inglis Dam. The map reflects a period of residential development near the water, particularly in Citrus Springs and Crystal Manor, while preserved wetlands and hammocks like Little Cedar Hammock remain largely untouched.

Local history is preserved in the numerous family and community cemeteries scattered through the pine lands, such as Cedar of Lebanon Cem and Dog Ear Cem. Remnants of earlier transport and industry are visible in the Old Railroad Grade and the State Recreation Area surrounding the lake. The north is characterized by a dense network of small water bodies and creeks, including Hellcat Bay and Horse Hole Creek, illustrating the natural drainage patterns of this coastal Florida transition zone.
