William Alexander Blount: Defender Of The Old South And Advocate Of A New South, Thomas Muir, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
William Alexander Blount, as a child, had experienced the frustrations of poverty and disorder resulting from the Civil War. While steeped in many of the values and traditions of the Old South, Blount was one of the new generation of southern leaders who, after the end of Reconstruction in 1877, strove to modernize the South through industrialization and closer cooperation with northern capitalists. His keen intellect and sharp legal mind served him well as a corporate lawyer for the Louisville and Nashville Railroad in Florida. Blount’s legal career in Pensacola spanned the Bourbon period, roughly from 1877 to 1900, when …

"A Gang Of Pirates": The Confederate Lighthouse Raids In Southeast, Rodney E. Dillon, Jr.
"A Gang Of Pirates": The Confederate Lighthouse Raids In Southeast, Rodney E. Dillon, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
In July of 1861, three months after Confederate gunners opened fire on Fort Sumter igniting the Civil War, a distinguished group of United States Army, Navy, and civilian officials met in Washington, DC. These men, Flag Officer Samuel F. DuPont, Commander Charles H. Davis, Major John G. Barnard, and Superintendent Alexander D. Bache of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, had been appointed by the Navy Department as a blockade board to study the geography and topography of the southern coastline, the state of Federal naval resources and manpower, and the strategic and tactical plans necessary to make President …
Settlement Patterns In Alachua County, Florida, 1850-1860, Everett W. Claudle
Settlement Patterns In Alachua County, Florida, 1850-1860, Everett W. Claudle
Florida Historical Quarterly
In 1773, the English botanist William Bartram traveled through north-central Florida. Impressed with the richness of the soil in the Alachua region, he commented on the variety and quantity of crops that the Indians who lived there seemed to grow with ease. Despite Bartram’s favorable report, and later comments like it, few settlers arrived in the area to establish farms and plantations when Florida became an American territory in 1821. Indeed, more than just fertile soil would be needed to lure farmers into the Florida wilderness. In this regard, the account of plantation agriculture’s arrival in Alachua County, Florida, will …
John Wallace And The Writing Of Reconstruction History, James C. Clark
John Wallace And The Writing Of Reconstruction History, James C. Clark
Florida Historical Quarterly
John Wallace, who rose from slavery to become a leading black politician in Florida during Reconstruction, has been nearly forgotten, while other black leaders have received overdue recognition for their accomplishments. Unlike those who are remembered for advancing the cause of blacks, Wallace left behind a different legacy— a book that was critical of his fellow blacks and Radical Republicans, and frequently complimentary of white conservation Democrats. The book, Carpetbag Rule in Florida: The Inside Workings of Civil Government in Florida After the Close of the Civil War, published in Jacksonville in 1888, became a major source for a generation …

Tom Moreno: A Pensacola Creole, William S. Coker
Tom Moreno: A Pensacola Creole, William S. Coker
Florida Historical Quarterly
A recently published volume about the Moreno family of the Gulf coast contained a picture and brief note about Tom Moreno who died in Pensacola, September 23, 1942. Tom reportedly was over 100 years old at the time of his death, but he could have been as young as eighty-three or as old as 105 depending upon which source one used (see table). An article by Gary R. Mormino, which was published in the Florida Historical Quarterly, called attention to an interview with Moreno conducted by Modeste Hargis in 1937 as part of the Work Projects Administration, Federal Writers’ Project. …

From Can't To Can't: The North Florida Turpentine Camp, 1900-1950, Robert N. Lauriault
From Can't To Can't: The North Florida Turpentine Camp, 1900-1950, Robert N. Lauriault
Florida Historical Quarterly
The dark slides like a tight glove over the solitary woods camp, and no man’s light affronts the majesty of the night sky. An insipid stirring of the warm evening air sets a single pine bough to swaying. Overall, stillness reigns— silence but for the monotony of a distant chuck-wills-widow and the earnest chant of frogs from some distant bog beyond the gloomy line of slash pines— the trees that make of the camp an island in a shadowy, evergreen sea.
"Give Us Twenty-Five Years": Florida Seminoles From Near Termination, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
"Give Us Twenty-Five Years": Florida Seminoles From Near Termination, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the years immediately following World War II, the nation experienced an ultra-conservative reaction to the social and economic policies fostered during Franklin D. Roosevelt’s unprecedented four-term presidency. Beginning in the late 1930s a coalition of conservative Republicans and southern Democrats set out to scuttle those aspects of the New Deal which they found most inimical to their ideology. When the Republicans regained control of the Congress in 1946, it signaled the beginning of a concerted effort to dismantle all but the most essential governmental spending programs. One of the federal bureaucracies singled out for annihilation— it did not enjoy …
Sibling Stewards Of A Commercial Empire: The Innerarity Brothers In The Floridas, Thomas C. Kennedy
Sibling Stewards Of A Commercial Empire: The Innerarity Brothers In The Floridas, Thomas C. Kennedy
Florida Historical Quarterly
Marquis James, in his biography of Andrew Jackson, alluded to John Forbes and Company, a firm which had succeeded Panton, Leslie and Company in 1804, and asserted that members of the Forbes enterprise “remained the actual rulers of Florida.” Among its members in 1804 were James Innerarity and his brother John. Of the latter, Marquis wrote: “Like a white shadow, John Innerarity glided through the weaving labyrinth, never on the losing side.“ Another scholar contended that individuals connected with both companies “were influential with the governments under which they lived, and exercised unmeasured control over the Indian tribes with which …

"Everybody Votes For Gilchrist": The Florida Gubernatorial Campaign Of 1908, Ric A. Kabat
"Everybody Votes For Gilchrist": The Florida Gubernatorial Campaign Of 1908, Ric A. Kabat
Florida Historical Quarterly
The sun was breaking through in Tallahassee on January 5, 1909, as groups of people filled the streets excitedly awaiting the inauguration of Florida’s new governor. The capitol was adorned with red, white, and blue bunting, and crowds had gathered on the grounds to watch the ceremonial festivities. At 12:00 P.M., Albert W. Gilchrist recited the oath officially accepting the office that he had sought so long and hard. Stepping to the podium, he could see hundreds of people waiting to hear his inaugural address. Many wondered: will Gilchrist be progressive? Will he pursue liberal policies or will his administration …
"State Of Emergency": Key West In The Great Depression, Garry Boulard
"State Of Emergency": Key West In The Great Depression, Garry Boulard
Florida Historical Quarterly
On July 1, 1934, elected representatives of the Key West City Council and the Monroe County Board of Commissioners drew up two separate resolutions that said the same thing. The island city, the ordinances declared, was more than $5,000,000 in bonded debt, with at least eighty percent of its inhabitants on the welfare rolls. City services were reduced to almost a non-existent level as employees went without pay for weeks at a time. Furthermore, the lack of a viable industry to employ local residents, coupled with a greatly decreased island tax base, foretold a dire economic future for the city.
Arcadia And Bagdad: Industrial Parks Of Antebellum Florida, Brian Rucker
Arcadia And Bagdad: Industrial Parks Of Antebellum Florida, Brian Rucker
Florida Historical Quarterly
Industrial development in antebellum Florida was rare; the new state’s economy was based primarily on agriculture, as were the other southern states. Two exceptions, however, are the interconnected industrial complexes of Arcadia and Bagdad, located in northwest Florida approximately twenty-five miles from Pensacola. Arcadia had its origins in 1817 and operated as an industrial site until 1855. Bagdad began in 1840 and became one of the world’s largest producers and exporters of yellow pine lumber until its lumber mill closed in 1939.
Florida Preachers And The Election Of 1928, M. Edward Highes
Florida Preachers And The Election Of 1928, M. Edward Highes
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the presidential election of 1928, a Roman Catholic, Governor Alfred E. Smith of New York, was the first of his religion to represent a major political party as its candidate for president. When Smith, the Democratic nominee, was defeated in this election, the importance of religion to his defeat frequently obscured the other issue which also created widespread opposition to his presidential aspirations. This issue, which many of the opponents of Smith cited as central to their opposition, was prohibition. Governor Smith proposed modifying existing prohibition laws to allow the sale of beer and wine. It was this position, …

Apalachee Counterfeiters In St. Augustine, John H. Hann
Apalachee Counterfeiters In St. Augustine, John H. Hann
Florida Historical Quarterly
The record of the criminal investigation into the counterfeiting activity of two young Apalachee visitors to St. Augustine is of significance for the light it casts on the acculturation of the Indians, Spanish labor recruitment practices late in the mission period, and the missions’ influence. It provides interesting vignettes as well of retail commercial life in St. Augustine and of the role played by free blacks in that commercial life and of the access of blacks to the governor.

Vigilante Justice And National Reaction: The 1937 Tallahassee Double Lynching, Walter T. Howard
Vigilante Justice And National Reaction: The 1937 Tallahassee Double Lynching, Walter T. Howard
Florida Historical Quarterly
The gruesome southern custom of lynching blacks no longer plagues the state of Florida. Yet, between 1882 and 1945, this species of vigilantism was a persistent problem. In the period 1889 to 1918, peak lynching years in the United States, nearly 200 blacks were executed in Florida. During the decade 1890-1900, seventy-four blacks were victims to lynch-law in Florida, and in the first ten years of the twentieth century, fifty-one met death in the same fashion. Forty-nine blacks were lynched between 1910 and 1917, and thirty-four between 1922 and 1929. Twelve blacks were executed during the decade of the 1930s, …
