Joseph Urban's Palm Beach Architecture, Donald W. Curl
Joseph Urban's Palm Beach Architecture, Donald W. Curl
Florida Historical Quarterly
When Paris Singer established the Everglades Club, he changed forever the nature of Palm Beach as a winter resort. Until 1918 social life centered on the Flagler hotels and the Beach Club, Colonel Edward Bradley’s gambling casino. In the period after World War I, when growing wealth allowed America’s middle class to plan winter vacations, society found its exclusiveness threatened. Almost anyone who could afford it could register at the Royal Poinciana, the Breakers, or the Palm Beach Hotel. The Everglades Club, with its expensive restricted membership, allowed for a new definition of society in the winter resort.

Philadelphia Story: Florida Gives William Bartram A Second Chance, Charlotte M. Porter
Florida Historical Quarterly
William Bartram’s book, Travels Through North & South Carolina, Georgia, East & West Florida . . ., published in 1791, presented the most “consistent aesthetic theory produced in America up to his day.“ 1 Two hundred years later, appreciation of this complex work requires an understanding of the author’s intellectual growth, for the Travels is both a volume of natural history and autobiography.

Political Leadership Among The Natives Of Spanish Florida, John H. Hann
Political Leadership Among The Natives Of Spanish Florida, John H. Hann
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the first Europeans arrived off Florida’s coasts the land was not uninhabited virgin territory but was occupied by many distinct peoples organized into flourishing, complex, chiefdom-level societies of a non-egalitarian nature. Those societies included the Calusa of the Gulf coast from the Charlotte Harbor area southward to the tip of the Florida peninsula; Tocobaga and others who occupied the shores of Tampa Bay and their hinterland; Ais of the Indian River area and its hinterland; various autonomous Timucua-speaking groups of south Georgia and north Florida from the east coast westward to the Aucilla, Withlacoochee, and Oklawaha rivers; Apalachee whose …
Reconstruction And Analysis Of The 1513 Discovery Voyage Of Juan Ponce De León, Douglas T. Peck
Reconstruction And Analysis Of The 1513 Discovery Voyage Of Juan Ponce De León, Douglas T. Peck
Florida Historical Quarterly
The long and eventful discovery voyage of Juan Ponce de León, the Spanish conquistador and explorer, has not received the amount of in-depth study and analysis that this historically significant voyage so richly deserves. Perhaps a reason for this can be found in the fact that sixteenth-century (and later) historians, in dwelling on the fact that the largely apocryphal purpose of the voyage was to find a fountain of youth, perverted the factual reporting of the real purpose of the voyage and its several significant discoveries. This distorted version continues in many contemporary history books because of the proclivity of …
The Search For The Seven Cities And Early American Exploration, George E. Buker
The Search For The Seven Cities And Early American Exploration, George E. Buker
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the Moors overran the Iberian peninsula at the opening of the eighth century, legend has it that the bishop of Oporto in Portugal led six other bishops and their followers westward across the Atlantic. He settled upon an island farther west than any sailor from Europe had ever been before, and he named it Antilla (which has had a variety of spellings). He allegedly burned his ships so that no one could return with news of his refuge. He assigned each bishop a portion of the island, and soon there were seven flourishing Christian communities established on Antilla. In …

Beyond The Martyrs Of Florida: The Versatile Career Of Luis Gerónimo De Oré, Noble David Cook
Florida Historical Quarterly
The general commissioner for the Franciscan missions in Florida, Friar Luis Gerónimo de Oré, arrived in St. Augustine in 1614 where he conducted a brief ecclesiastical inspection before returning to Cuba. Oré came again to Florida in late 1616, reaching St. Augustine on November 6. Armed with powers of visitation and confirmation, he inspected the Franciscan missions in the area and confirmed hundreds of converts. He also presided over the First General Chapter Meeting of the Franciscan Order in the province. During his Florida travels, Oré collected reports on earlier attempts of conversion, and before returning to Europe he compiled …

Unpretending Service: The James L. Davis, The Tahoma, And The East Gulf Blockading Squadron, David J. Coles
Florida Historical Quarterly
The United States Navy’s primary mission during the Civil War was to blockade the Confederate coastline. To accomplish this, the North Atlantic, South Atlantic, East Gulf, and West Gulf Blockading Squadrons were established.1 Perhaps the least known of these was the East Gulf Blockading Squadron (EGBS), which was created January 20, 1862, and began independent operations a month later on February 22. Charged with responsibility for the blockade of the Florida peninsula from Cape Canaveral on the Atlantic coast to St. Andrew Bay in the Gulf of Mexico, the EGBS operated for three and one-half years. During that time, the …

Review Essay: Osceola: The White Man's Indian, Theda Perdue
Review Essay: Osceola: The White Man's Indian, Theda Perdue
Florida Historical Quarterly
Patricia R. Wickman’s study of Osceola is not a typical biography. She outlines the major events in the life of Osceola, but her focus is primarily on Osceolana— that is, the artifacts associated with the hero of the Seminoles’ struggle to remain in their homeland. She attempts to separate the genuine accounts of his life and accurate visual representations of him from those that are derivative, and she authenticates some personal belongings while casting considerable doubt on others. Her narrative reads like a detective story. Like all detective work, some of her investigation is technical and dull, while other parts …
Heathen Acuera, Murder, And A Potano Cimarrona: The St. Johns River And The Alachua Paririe In The 1670s, John H. Hann
Heathen Acuera, Murder, And A Potano Cimarrona: The St. Johns River And The Alachua Paririe In The 1670s, John H. Hann
Florida Historical Quarterly
The 1655 mission list was believed to have contained the last mention of the little-known Acuera branch of the Timucua, who “probably occupied the area between the Ocklawaha and St. Johns Rivers.” That belief fostered speculation that the Acuera, the missions among them, and other Spanish interaction with them ended with the Timucua rebellion of 1656.1 A recently unearthed record of a 1678 criminal case reveals the existence of at least a few heathen Acuera a generation after the rebellion. It also provides information about life in the 1670s from the Potano region of present Alachua County east to the …
William Bartram's Travels In The Indian Nations, Charlotte M. Porter
William Bartram's Travels In The Indian Nations, Charlotte M. Porter
Florida Historical Quarterly
In 1773, the famous American naturalist William Bartram returned to the southeast portion of what is now the United States. The region was a more dangerous place than he realized. American “patriots” from Georgia were making troublesome border raids into East Florida. Many of the English plantations were owned in absentia, and the lives of the resident managers were, as Bartram knew from personal experience, isolated. Indian groups far outnumbered white residents in the Floridas, and they were becoming increasingly hostile. With an estimated 4,500 warriors, the Lower Creeks seriously impeded any colonial presence in the East Florida interior. In …

A New Englander On The Indian River Frontier: Caleb Lyndon Brayton And The View From Brayton's Bluff, Edward Caleb Coker
Florida Historical Quarterly
In July 1844, from atop a high bluff overlooking the Indian River in St. Lucie County, Caleb Lyndon Brayton commenced an affectionate correspondence to his wife which continued until his death from tuberculosis ten years later.1 Lyndon had come to Florida to improve his health and seek his fortune. His pregnant wife, Marian, and his young son, Thomas Lyndon, remained behind in Augusta, Georgia, waiting for him to become estabished on the Florida frontier. Brayton, a native of Rhode Island, began his career as a merchant in Fall River, Massachusetts. The onset of tuberculosis prompted a move to the warmer …

Review Essay:An "African Prince, Majestic In His Wrath": William S. Mcfeely's Biography Of Frederick Douglass, Willard B. Gatewood
Florida Historical Quarterly
On the evening of August 16, 1841, a large crowd gathered in the port city of Nantucket, Massachusetts, to attend an important anti-slavery meeting. Those unable to find places on the floor of the spacious square building known as the Big Shop filled the lofts; some even sat on the rafters. Those stranded on the outside of the building observed the proceedings through its windows. Among the abolitionist luminaries in attendance were William Lloyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips, Parker Pillsbury, and assorted members of the famous Coffin family. Also present was a runaway slave from Maryland’s Eastern Shore whom William C. …

Gone But Not Forgotten: Wakulla County's Folk Graveyards, Sherrie Stokes
Florida Historical Quarterly
Cemeteries sometimes evoke a sense of dread among the living, but these last resting places of the dead often offer important clues to the social and economic backgrounds of those interred in them. Rural southern cemeteries generally are remote and only rarely are sought out by those who study gravestones and burial grounds. Nonetheless, many still are used for burials, and most possess material clues that illustrate gradual and abrupt changes in the traditional and folk funerary customs of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
A Forgotten Sacrifice: Richard Gentry, Missouri Volunteers, And The Battle Of Okeechobee, Phillip Thomas Tucker
A Forgotten Sacrifice: Richard Gentry, Missouri Volunteers, And The Battle Of Okeechobee, Phillip Thomas Tucker
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Christmas Day 1837 battle at Lake Okeechobee was a crucial turning point of the Second Seminole War. Almost 30 percent of the American casualties in that engagement were volunteers from Missouri, forty men out of an effective volunteer force of 132. Among the dead was the volunteers’ commanding officer, Colonel Richard Gentry. While the battle’s American commander, Colonel Zachary Taylor, claimed a great victory, the clash was a disaster for the Missourians and, at that, was only the last in a series of difficult trials faced by the luckless regiment.
Florida's Confederate Guerrillas: John W. Pearson And The Oklawaha Rangers, Zack C. Waters
Florida's Confederate Guerrillas: John W. Pearson And The Oklawaha Rangers, Zack C. Waters
Florida Historical Quarterly
Secession and the approach of hostilities in 1861 found Florida unprepared for civil war. The state’s militia had disintegrated at the end of the Third Seminole War in 1858, and the attempts of Governor Madison Starke Perry to remedy its disorganized condition proved ineffectual. Perry warned Floridians that the political situation called for military preparedness, but his pleas led to little improvement. An 1859 report indicated that the state possessed only one battery of light artillery and fewer than 1,000 muskets and rifles, including more than 250 antiquated flint and steel muskets.

"Some Prefer The Seminoles": Violence And Disorder Among Soldiers And Settlers In The Second Seminole War, 1835-1842, James M. Denham
Florida Historical Quarterly
On November 26, 1835, Seminole Chief Charley Emaltha was murdered brutally as an act of retaliation. Against the wishes of many native leaders, he had agreed to emigrate west, as required by the earlier treaties of Paynes Landing and Fort Gibson. It soon became apparent that Osceola, a rival leader, and his band of followers were responsible. The news, when it spread, created panic throughout the frontier. At Alachua County’s seat at Newnansville, for example, Judge Robert Raymond Reid hurriedly dismissed the on-going session of the Superior Court of Alachua, Columbia, and Hillsborough counties so that everyone concerned could return …

Florida Historical Quarterly
Congressional enactment of the Seminole Indian Land Claims Settlement Act of 1987 paved the way for resolution of a thirty-nine-year political and legal conflict between the Seminole Indians and the state of Florida over control of one of the most environmentally sensitive regions in the state.1 The area, known as the East Big Cypress Reservation, was a 28,000-acre tract lying in western Broward and Palm Beach counties, and it formed a rectangle measuring approximately six miles north to south and eight miles east to west. On the west, the tract abutted the federal Big Cypress Indian Reservation, which was acquired …

West Florida's Creek Indian Crisis Of 1837, Brian R. Rucker
West Florida's Creek Indian Crisis Of 1837, Brian R. Rucker
Florida Historical Quarterly
Although Andrew Jackson’s forays into Spanish West Florida in 1814 and 1818 dispersed several hostile bands of Creek Indians, scattered parties remained in isolated forests and swamps. When Florida was transferred to the United States in 1821, settlers moving into the new territory soon were confronted with the presence of these natives. The majority were located in the central portion of the territory, but sizable bands lived in northwest Florida. The Treaty of Moultrie Creek, signed in 1823, provided for the settlement of approximately 800 friendly Creeks on reservation lands along the Apalachicola River. Smaller bands also lived along the …
