Welcome to Magnolia ...

So far, we found very little information about Magnolia. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Magnolia to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Magnolia - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Magnolia, please Contact Us.

While we don't have the exact location of Magnolia , we believe that it would have been located within present day Wakulla County<2>.

While we don't have a date for the founding of Magnolia, you might consider that their post office opened in 1827.

Footnotes ...

<1>	We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Magnolia, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>	If you're interested in how the shape of Florida's counties, including Wakulla, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
<3>	Area code (448) is an overlay for area code (850).
