1924 Flagler Tribune Map of Flagler County, Florida

DESCRIPTION: Detailed map of Flagler County, Florida, issued under the title "The Flagler Tribune Map" and compiled in the office of F. W. Searse, Bunnell, Florida, dated January 1924. Printed in black with red overprinting, the map shows county commissioners' districts, special school districts, drainage districts, roads, railroads, and waterways against a numbered township-and-section grid.

The map extends from the Atlantic coast westward to Crescent Lake, identifying Bunnell, Flagler Beach, Haw Creek, and Lake Disston. Portions of neighboring St. Johns, Putnam, and Volusia counties appear along the margins. Named landholdings include the Dupont Land Company, while irregular grant boundaries interrupt the rectangular survey grid. Red lines distinguish drainage-related features, including the Bimini and Bunnell drainage districts.

Prepared for general reference, the map combines local transportation and settlement information with the administrative boundaries governing schools, county representation, and drainage. A useful record of Flagler County's landscape and land organization in 1924, with a mileage scale, compass rose, and explanatory legend.
