St. Petersburg-Tampa Airboat Line, Eugene F. Provenzo, Jr. Dec 2021

St. Petersburg-Tampa Airboat Line, Eugene F. Provenzo, Jr.

Florida Historical Quarterly

The St. Petersburg-Tampa Airboat Line operated between St. Petersburg and Tampa, Florida, for three months between January 1, 1914, and March 31, 1914. The Line is commonly recognized as the world’s first regularly-scheduled passenger and commercial freight airline. The idea for the airline originated with the Florida engineer and businessman, P. E. Fansler. It was while experimenting with speed boat racing that he became interested in flying as a way of achieving even greater speed. When he heard about the record-breaking long distance flight made by Antony Jannus in a Benoist flying boat between Omaha and New Orleans in the …


Governor Tonyn's Brown-Water Navy: East Florida During The American Revolution, 1775-1778, George E. Buker Dec 2021

Governor Tonyn's Brown-Water Navy: East Florida During The American Revolution, 1775-1778, George E. Buker

Florida Historical Quarterly

Moses Kirkland left St. Augustine aboard the brigantine Betsey bound for British-held Boston with a packet of letters requesting an expedition to Charleston, South Carolina, so that the southern loyalists and Indians might be saved for the crown. East Florida’s Royal Governor Patrick Tonyn’s letters were among the bundle being forwarded to General Thomas Gage. On December 17, 1775, the Continental schooner Lee captured the Betsey off the New England coast and made for an American port. The next day the intercepted East Florida letters were taken to General George Washington’s headquarters at Cambridge, Massachusetts, where they aroused considerable interest. …


Trail Indians Of Florida, James W. Covington Dec 2021

Trail Indians Of Florida, James W. Covington

Florida Historical Quarterly

The story of the Trail Indians of Florida is the account of Seminoles who loved Florida as much as any group that ever lived here-Latins, crackers, or transplanted Yankees-and who fought the United States government to a virtual standstill in three nineteenth-century wars in a fierce determination to maintain their homes somewhere on the peninsula. In terms of religion, education, and their general life pattern, the Trail Indians have been among the most recalcitrant in the United States against the threats of the white man’s civilization. In recent years one group of Seminoles, organized into the Miccosukee Tribe, launched a …


The Sly Foxes: Henry Flagler, George Miles, And Florida's Public Domain, Edward N. Akin Dec 2021

The Sly Foxes: Henry Flagler, George Miles, And Florida's Public Domain, Edward N. Akin

Florida Historical Quarterly

"My domain begins at Jacksonville," Henry M. Flagler asserted in an invitation extended in February 1898 to President William McKinley to visit him on Florida’s east coast. Flagler’s statement contained a great measure of truth. During the 1880s, Flagler, a close friend and associate of John D. Rockefeller in their Standard Oil Company empire, began a second career in Florida. Flagler had spent some time in Jacksonville in 1878 with his first wife in a vain effort to regain her health. He was delighted with Florida, and he honeymooned with his second wife in St. Augustine during the winter of …

He Has Carried His Life In His Hands: The "Sarasota Assassination Society" Of 1884, Janet Snyder Matthews

Florida Historical Quarterly

A front page headline in the New York Times in February 1885, announced: “The Bloody Work of Band of Southern Murderers . . . the notorious Sarasota Assassination Society.” The Times story reported that Alfred B. Bidwell, formerly of Buffalo, had been arrested for vigilantism in Florida: “This organization is supposed to exist for the purpose of the secret murder of political opponents, and is composed of 20 members, bound together by terrible oaths to perform the bloody work of the band and to keep its secrets inviolate. Mr. Bidwell is charged with making his store the rendezvous of the …
