Edmund M. Blunt, editor of The American Pilot, stated in 1822, that there were only three points of destination on the gulf coast of the United States: New Orleans, Mobile, and Pensacola. Another port, however, Apalachicola, was slowly beginning to grow, and within twenty years it would supersede Pensacola as a cotton port.

Migration Into Florida Of The Seminoles, 1700-1820, James W. Covington
Migration Into Florida Of The Seminoles, 1700-1820, James W. Covington
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Seminole Indians were relatively late arrivals to the Florida peninsula; the Apalachees, Calusas, Timucuans, and smaller tribes had settled the area much earlier. The Seminole migrations into Florida came in three distinct phases: in the period between 1702-1750, they made raids against the Spainards and their Indian allies, and although the Seminoles acquired much knowledge of the Florida terrain, no significant settlements were made. In the period 1750-1812, six or more villages were established in the northern part of Florida, and small parties explored the entire peninsula in search of deer, bear, and other game, and to make contact …

Journey To The Wilderness: Two Travelers In Florida, 1696-1774, Mary S. Mattfield
Journey To The Wilderness: Two Travelers In Florida, 1696-1774, Mary S. Mattfield
Florida Historical Quarterly
The eastern coast of the State of Florida is today heavily populated. From Jupiter Inlet north to the Georgia state line, vacation resorts and permanent communities front the Atlantic all the way. It is not easy to visualize this shore as wilderness through which a traveler could make his way only with the greatest difficulty, a cruel wilderness of burning desert and freezing exposure, of lacerating thorns and shells, and of near starvation. It is still harder to imagine the traveler on this coast beset, not only by natural perils, but also by the menace of hostile, even cannibalistic Indian …

A Footnote On Rene Laudionniere, Charles E. Bennett
A Footnote On Rene Laudionniere, Charles E. Bennett
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Fort Caroline National Memorial, a facility of the National park Service near Jacksonville, includes the reconstructed sixteenth century fort and an interpretive museum, the latter containing priceless American and European artifacts. Fort Caroline, established by the French in 1564 under the leadership of Rene Laudonniere, was then the only European settlement in the territory which is now the United States. It was conquered in 1565 by Spanish forces under Pedro Menendez d’Aviles, who founded Saint Augustine, the country’s oldest city.
Early History Of The Cross-Florida Barge Canal, Charles E. Bennett
Early History Of The Cross-Florida Barge Canal, Charles E. Bennett
Florida Historical Quarterly
The dream of constructing an all-water route across the peninsula of Florida to carry freight and passengers has often been discussed and debated in the past history of this state. Many plans were projected and discarded, surveys were made, and work even began on a canal during the 1930s. However, only now is the Cross-Florida Barge Canal actually underway with completion scheduled for sometime after 1970.

The Narrow Waters Strategies Of Pedro Menendez, Paul E. Hoffman
Florida Historical Quarterly
In a letter to Philip II from Cadiz on December 3, 1570, Pedro Menendez de Aviles, Adelantado of Florida and Captain General of the Armada for the Guarding and Security of the Coasts, Islands, and Ports of the Indies, said that he planned to “place myself in the Bahama Channel where he [Jacques Sores, considered to be one of the best French corsairs and at the time at large in the Caribbean] could not come out without my seeing him.” Menendez recognized that the control of the Bahama Channel was essential for the security of the Caribbean. He said that …

British Designs On The Old Southwest: Foreign Intrigue On The Florida Frontier, 1783-1803, J. Leitch Wright, Jr.
British Designs On The Old Southwest: Foreign Intrigue On The Florida Frontier, 1783-1803, J. Leitch Wright, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
It is widely recognized that for years after the American Revolution Britain played an important role in the affairs of the Old Northwest. In spite of the peace treaty’s provisions, she continued to occupy military posts ceded to the United States. Using these posts as centers, Canadian traders continued to monopolize most of the Indian commerce north of the Ohio, and the Indians in this vast region still looked to Detroit, Niagara, and Quebec, rather than to New York, Pittsburgh, or Philadelphia for commercial and political leadership. In theory the Old Northwest was an integral part of the United States; …
The Exploration Of Florida And Sources On The Founding Of St. Augustine, Luis Rafael Arana
The Exploration Of Florida And Sources On The Founding Of St. Augustine, Luis Rafael Arana
Florida Historical Quarterly
Four hundred years ago, Europeans made the first permanent settlement within the present limits of the United States. These were Spaniards who under Pedro Menendez de Aviles established St. Augustine in 1565, upon land discovered fifty-two years earlier. In the interval between discovery and colonization, the coast of Florida had been gradually charted and portions of the interior explored. Though all attempts at planting the civilization of Spain in the new land failed until Menendez appeared on the scene, the discoveries of Juan Ponce de Leon, Alonso Alvarez de Pineda, Panfilo de Narvaez, and Hernando de Soto gradually outlined the …

Captain Nathaniel Wyche Hunter And The Florida Indian Campaigns, 1837-1841, Reynold M. Wik
Captain Nathaniel Wyche Hunter And The Florida Indian Campaigns, 1837-1841, Reynold M. Wik
Florida Historical Quarterly
In January, 1837, Captain Nathaniel Wyche Hunter arrived at Fort Huleman, Florida, to engage in the military campaigns against the Seminole Indians. His letters and diaries during the next four years provide a vivid account of military life in the Peninsula State. Although his observations do not alter the history of the Seminole wars, they do reflect the thoughts of a perceptive officer facing the frustrations common to this theater of frontier warfare. They also present a soldier’s view of the United States government’s action in removing the Florida Indians to lands beyond the Mississippi river.
Sixteenth Century English-Spanish Rivalry In La Florida, Leitch Wright, Jr.
Sixteenth Century English-Spanish Rivalry In La Florida, Leitch Wright, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
For many years after its discovery la Florida was a vague geographical concept. Discovered by Ponce de Leon in 1513, it was first considered an island, though later recognized to be a diminutive tail wagging an immense dog. During much of the sixteenth century it embraced a large part of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts and stretched mysteriously inland an infinite way. Ponce de Leon was followed by numerous other conquistadors such as Vazquez de Ayllon, Panfilio de Narvaez, Hernando de Soto, and Tristan de Luna y Arrellano, but they garnered little gold or silver and endured many privations, shipwrecks, …

Ante-Bellum Pensacola: 1821-1860, Herbert J. Doherty, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
The morning sun over Pensacola on July 17, 1821, shone on a scene of historic pageantry not since repeated in Florida’s history. During the early hours of that day a full company of Spanish troops, dismounted dragoons of the regiment of Tarragona who were elegantly clad and equipped, paraded in the plaza before the Government House. A few miles away, through the flat piney woods, came elements of the Fourth United States Infantry and Fourth United States Artillery regiments with flags flying and band playing. At their heads rode the gaunt gray figure of Andrew Jackson. After almost two months …
Pensacola During The Second Spanish Period, L. N. Mcalister
Pensacola During The Second Spanish Period, L. N. Mcalister
Florida Historical Quarterly
On the first day of January, 1777, an event in New Orleans was to have important consequences for the history of Pensacola: Bernardo de Galvez formally assumed the governorship of Louisiana. Galvez was typical of the colonial officials who were appointed during that Indian Summer of Spanish Imperial history, the reign of Charles III. A career officer in the royal armies, he had already distinguished himself in several theaters: first in Portugal, then in Mexico against the Indians on the northern frontier where, under his famous uncle Jose de Galvez, he displayed those traits of energy, initiative, and leadership which …

Florida Pioneer, Adelaide H. Reed
Florida Historical Quarterly
Whether the source of the Manatee River was really the “Fountain of Youth” for which Ponce de Leon searched in vain is a question for historians - or geographers - to argue about. But, in its early days, the little town of Manatee really did have a “Fountain of Youth.” At least, it was named that. It was not exactly a fountain, but a little spring of clear, cold water bubbling up out of the ground, with a gourd hung on a nearby oak tree from which to drink.

Population Change As An Element In The Historical Geography Of St. Augustine, John R. Dunkle
Population Change As An Element In The Historical Geography Of St. Augustine, John R. Dunkle
Florida Historical Quarterly
The History of St Augustine, like the history of every place, is an intricate drama of personalities and events set against a backdrop of the physical and cultural environment. This paper attempts to outline the pattern of one facet of the cultural background: population. It is believed that this may be justified by the fact that population changes correlate with events and shed light on those events. Further, population changes serve as an index to changes in economy.
