A Diary Of Joshua Nichols Glenn, St. Augustine In 1823, Joshua Nichols Glenn
Florida Historical Quarterly
When Florida became a part of the United States, Methodists in nearby Georgia and South Carolina looked upon East Florida as their missionary field, and at the annual session of the South Carolina Conference of 1823 which met at Savannah, Joshua Nichols Glenn was chosen and sent to establish a mission at St. Augustine.
Florida In 1845, Dorothy Dodd
Florida In 1845, Dorothy Dodd
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the government of the State of Florida was organized in June 1845, the state contained a population of some 66,500. Although Florida has a total area of 58,560 square miles, 2 47 percent of the population was concentrated in the 7,333 square miles (only 12.5 percent of the state total) lying between the Apalachicola and Suwannee rivers, then known as Middle Florida. The remaining 53 percent was distributed fairly evenly between West and East Florida, 25 percent being in the former and 28 percent in the latter. But since West Florida -between the Perdido and Apalachicola rivershas an area …

Pioneer Florida: The Pad-Guad At Pensacola, 1830, T. Frederick Davis
Florida Historical Quarterly
Any well-rounded history of a country or of a section must include an account of the habits, customs and pastimes of its people in each generation. For Florida, not much has been told of these during our pioneer period from 1821, when it became a possession of the United States, to its admission to statehood in 1845. The human side of life in that period was recorded mostly in the minds of the old inhabitants, and when that generation passed the records were gone too. Every bit of authentic information relating to this period such as diaries and contemporaneous letters, …

Luciano De Herrera, Spanish Spy In British St. Augustine, Katherine S. Lawson
Florida Historical Quarterly
When Governor Melchor Feliu closed the extensive and complicated operation of evacuating Spanish residents from St. Augustine on February 5, 1764, he reported that in order to provide for looking after certain properties of the king, and to dispose of many horses running in the woods, he had left seven soldiers and an interpreter there. One of these was a militiaman, Luciano de Herrera, whose family had long been resident in the colony.

The Tallahassee Historical Society's "Apalachee", Florida Historical Society
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Tallahassee Historical Society has long been one of the most active local historical associations in Florida. Program meetings are held during each winter at which carefully prepared papers are read, many of them having been written after extensive research. Several of these papers have been published in this Quarterly, and a much larger number were selected and published at intervals as The Annual of the Tallahassee Historical Society in 1934, 1935, 1937 and 1939. These are mimeographed volumes of sixty to one hundred twenty pages.

“Yes, Separation! No, Integration!” A Historical Analysis Of Black Nationalist Groups Across The Decades: From The Civil Rights Era To The Contemporary Era, John Mcgee
Undergraduate Research Conference
As tens of thousands of protesters have taken to the streets with the chants of “Black Lives Matter!” Or “hands up, don’t shoot” issues such as police brutality and institutional racism have once again been thrust into the national spotlight. The strength, longevity, and occasional violence associated with these protests have made Americans from all backgrounds aware of the demands of the protestors. Unsurprisingly, these recent protests, often concerned with issues of race and justice, have drawn comparisons to the powerful protests of the civil rights era. As a result of the success of the civil rights movement and leaders …

Richard Keith Call, Florida Territorial Leader, Sidney Walter Martin
Richard Keith Call, Florida Territorial Leader, Sidney Walter Martin
Florida Historical Quarterly
One of the most colorful figures involved in the destiny of the Territory of Florida was Virginia-born Richard Keith Call. He was an Indian fighter, served two terms as governor, and left behind him an impressive political career. Most of his early years were spent in Kentucky; and the recollection of a happy childhood in that state often caused him to return for visits after his permanent home had been established in Florida. He spent several years in a military academy in Tennessee, but with the outbreak of the War of 1812, the restless and impetuous youth left the academy …
The Gibraltar Of The Gulf Of Mexico, Albert Manucy
The Gibraltar Of The Gulf Of Mexico, Albert Manucy
Florida Historical Quarterly
A hundred years ago the United States was suffering frequent growing pains. The Louisiana and Florida cessions had uncorked the Mississippi, and the hardy pioneers of its valley were floating tons of produce down-river to New Orleans. From that growing port Yankee merchantman, flying Dutchman, and British brig edged out into the Gulf Stream and headed for the narrow mouth of the Gulf where they swept through the Straits past Tortugas with the Havannah to starboard, and the two scarce thirty leagues apart.

Here is a man who was an English colonial by birth, a Spanish citizen by naturalization, and died an American citizen by virtue of the treaty through which the United States acquired the Floridas. All occurred in St. Augustine!-though some of his mature years were spent in Fernandina and in St. Marys, Georgia.

God’S Protecting Providence: A Journal Of Jonathan Dickinson, Charles M. Andrews
God’S Protecting Providence: A Journal Of Jonathan Dickinson, Charles M. Andrews
Florida Historical Quarterly
Toward the end of September, 1696, a group of shipwrecked people found themselves the captives of a petty tribe of Florida Indians in an Indian town, five miles south of the place of their disaster and about eighteen miles north of the present island of Palm Beach on the south side of a body of water now known as Jupiter Inlet. Nearby was one of the many oyster-shell mounds of the eastern coast of Florida, which is still there though much reduced in size. In this Indian town the members of the ship’s company remained for two days, not ill-treated …

Castle St. Mark And The Patriots Of The Revolution, Albert Manucy
Castle St. Mark And The Patriots Of The Revolution, Albert Manucy
Florida Historical Quarterly
CASTILLO DE SAN MARCOS is a token of Spain’s determination to protect her vast New World riches in the face of seemingly inexorable English rivalry, encroachment, and actual piracy. This aged citadel, renamed Fort Marion by the Americans, is now Castillo de San Marcos National Monument at St. Augustine. Engineer Ignacio Daza laid the first stone for the foundations in 1672, and the fort became a focal point of colonial culture - Spain’s last impregnable outpost on the shores of the North Atlantic. Now, with the passage of two and a half centuries, it represents to us something of the …
The Dream Act And Daca: A History Of Immigrant Children, Sofia Paschero
The Dream Act And Daca: A History Of Immigrant Children, Sofia Paschero
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
This thesis writes the history of the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM ACT) and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). Chapter One gives a background history on immigration reforms in the 20th century. Chapter Two focuses on the history of the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM Act). Chapter Three is the immigrant children story. This chapter is an oral history. My main argument is immigrants have always been and still are, easy targets. Politicians create immigrants as scapegoats in order to avoid the social, political, cultural, and economic issues that are affecting people …
That “Odd Being” De Brahm, Charles L. Mowat
That “Odd Being” De Brahm, Charles L. Mowat
Florida Historical Quarterly
Among the many interesting and distinguished figures who in one way or another were connected with the small community of British East Florida during its brief history none is more intriguing than its first surveyor general, William Gerrard De Brahm. A man whose versatility of genius went beyond even that of the typical eighteenth-century dilettante: a surveyor, engineer, botanist, astronomer, meteorologist, student of ocean currents, alchemist, sociologist, historian and mystical philosopher; he was also something of an eccentric in character, whose peculiarities are heightened for us by the odd ways in which his imperfect knowledge of the English tongue expressed …

A Letter From Indian Key, 1840, Charles Howe
Florida Historical Quarterly
The writer was Charles Howe who was Inspector of the Port and Postmaster at Indian Key and a survivor of the massacre there three months before the date of this letter. He was also one of the two associates of Dr. Henry Perrine in his noteworthy horticultural enterprise. See this Quarterly, v. 38 (July 1926). Grateful acknowledgment is made for a copy of the letter to Dr. H. Bailey Carroll, Professor of History, North Texas Agricultural College.
St. Augustine Under The British Flag, 1763-1775, Charles L. Mowat
St. Augustine Under The British Flag, 1763-1775, Charles L. Mowat
Florida Historical Quarterly
The city of St. Augustine, in the serenity which comes from nearly four hundred years of existence, inevitably carries the visitor back to the days of the Spanish Empire. Its narrow streets, its low coquina houses with their balconies overhanging the roadway, its shady square running from the old Governor’s House down to the bay, and above all the massive yet graceful lines of the fort which should be called as of old Castillo de San Marcos, all bring back the spirit of the Old World to blend with that of the New into something of its original charm and …
The Confederate Baggage And Treasure Train Ends Its Flight In Florida: A Diary Of Tench Francis Tilghman
Florida Historical Quarterly
Editor’s note : The widespread interest aroused by A. J. Hanna’s latest publication FLIGHT INTO OBLIVION suggests that readers of the QUARTERLY will wish to read the diary of Tench Francis Tilghman on which a chapter of that book is based. In editing the diary Professcr Hanna* has used the mass of materials he assembled through years of research for his book to give us a picture of conditions in Florida in 1865. For this he has a noteworthy heritage, as each branch of his family came to Florida before the War, and two of his great-grandfathers were here before …
Florida’S First Constitution
Florida Historical Quarterly
The constitution of 1838-1839, formulated by representative delegates and adopted at the polls, represented the dominant will of the people of the Territory of Florida in emerging from a status of territorial dependence upon the Federal government into that of a sovereign State subject only to the Federal constitution.
