144 FLORIDA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY—THIRD ANNUAL REPORT. 
AREA OF ARTESIAN FLOW IN ST. JOHNS COUNTY. 
The areas of flowing and non-flowing wells in St. Johns Countv 
are indicated on the accompanying map. 
The shaded lines on the map indicate the area in which flowing 
artesian wells can be obtained in this county. As will be seen from 
the map the flowing area borders the Atlantic coast and the St. 
Johns River, and has a width along the coast and also along the 
St. Johns of from two or three to eight or ten miles. The flow¬ 
ing area extends inland following the streams. So far as present 
records show, a narrow strip extending north and south through the 
central part of the county is non-flowing. A fresh water spring is 
reported to occur in the ocean opposite Matanzas. Springs of this 
character represent the natural escape of the underground waters 
into the ocean. 
LOCAL DETAILS 
ANASTASIA ISLAND. 
A six inch well drilled in 1895 at South Beach on Anastasia Is¬ 
land reached a total depth of 260 feet. A strong flow of sulphur 
water was obtained from this well. 
ARMSTRONG. 
Flowing wells have been obtained in the vicinity of Armstrong. 
A four inch well drilled in 1908 for J. W. Williams by N. H. 
Monck reached a total depth of 200 feet. This well is cased 70 feet 
and the water is reported to rise 12 feet above the surface. 
BUNNELL. 
An effort was made in 1909 to obtain a flowing well at Bun¬ 
nell. A five inch well was drilled at this place by Mr. N. H. 
Monck for Messrs Lambert and Moody. This well was cased to 
a depth of 130 feet and is reported to have been drilled to a total 
depth of 300 feet. A flow is not obtained in this well although the 
water rises to within about two feet of the surface. 
A second well owned by Messrs. Lambert and Moody, drilled by 
Bellough and Melton in 1910 is 128 feet deep. The following 
log of this well was supplied by the drillers.
