The Alachua Trail: A Reconstruction, Burke G. Vanderhill
The Alachua Trail: A Reconstruction, Burke G. Vanderhill
Florida Historical Quarterly
Among numerous Indian pathways forming a network within the American Southeast at the time of European contact was one which led southward from the Altamaha River of Georgia to the Alachua country of Florida. (Fig. 1) This “Alachua Trail” was well known in the colonial period, a fact pointing to long aboriginal use. Today however the trail is unmarked and generally lost to memory, and only rare and tantalizingly brief references to it appear in the historical record.

New Numbers For The Stetson Collection, Paul E. Hoffman
New Numbers For The Stetson Collection, Paul E. Hoffman
Florida Historical Quarterly
Ever since the Archivo General de Indias (Archive of the Indies or AGI) was renumbered in 1929, users of the John B. Stetson, Jr. Collection of photostats in the P. K. Yonge Library of Florida History, University of Florida, Gainesville, and of other pre-1929 collections of copies from the AGI have been at a disadvantage in citing those copies. Prior to 1929, the bundles (legajos) of the AGI were numbered according to a system of stack, shelf, bundle (estante, cajón, legajo) whose typical form was “54-2-1.” These numbers were replaced with serial numbers within each ramo (literally “branch”) of the …
Captain Hugh Young's Map Of Jackson's 1818 Seminole Campaign In Florida, Alcione M. Amos
Captain Hugh Young's Map Of Jackson's 1818 Seminole Campaign In Florida, Alcione M. Amos
Florida Historical Quarterly
Recently on a visit to the cartographic division of the National Archives in Washington, the author was shown the map drawn by Captain Hugh Young of the United States Army Corps of Topographical Engineers to accompany his “A Topographical Memoir of East and West Florida With Itineraries [of General Andrew Jackson’s Army, 1818].” The “Memoir,” written in 1818, was published in 1934-1935, in the Florida Historical Quarterly. The map had become separated from the “Memoir,” and previous efforts to locate it were not successful. The map is a fragment of a topographical sketch captioned “Map of the Seat of War …
Captain Hugh Young And His 1818 Topographical Memoir To Andrew Jackson, Ernest F. Dibble
Captain Hugh Young And His 1818 Topographical Memoir To Andrew Jackson, Ernest F. Dibble
Florida Historical Quarterly
When General Andrew Jackson campaigned through West Florida and took possession of Pensacola in 1818, he was traveling through territory not previously explored and mapped by an American. To traverse this territory with his army, he had to depend upon receiving extensive topographical information. For this he relied upon the surveys provided at the time by Captain Hugh Young, assistant topographical engineer and fellow Tennessean.
Florida White, Southern Belle, Margaret Anderson Uhler
Florida White, Southern Belle, Margaret Anderson Uhler
Florida Historical Quarterly
The life of Ellen Adair White Beatty reads like a romantic novel. Born Eleanor Katherine Adair, June 5, 1801, near Harrodsburg, Kentucky, she was one of eleven children of General John Adair, veteran of the Revolution and the War of 1812 and eighth governor of Kentucky. During Florida’s early years as an American territory, Ellen became one of her most fascinating figures. A keen mind and sparkling personality, together with a madonna-like beauty, combined to make her the idol of intellectual and fashionable circles in Europe as well as in America.
The Influence Of The Peabody Fund On Education In Reconstruction Florida, F. Bruce Rosen
The Influence Of The Peabody Fund On Education In Reconstruction Florida, F. Bruce Rosen
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Peabody Education Fund had an important impact on education in Florida, particularly during the post-Civil War years from 1869 to 1876. Through its emphasis on elementary education, its assistance to urban schools, and its support of segregated schooling, the Peabody Fund helped determine future patterns of education in the state.

Custom, Law, And History: The Enduring Influence Of Florida's "Black Code", Jerrell H. Shofner
Florida Historical Quarterly
In October 1956, Dr. Deborah Coggins, health officer for Madison, Jefferson, and Taylor counties, sat down to lunch in Madison, Florida, with a public health nurse to discuss a matter of mutual official concern. Because of their busy schedules the lunch hour was the only mutually available time for the meeting. But since the doctor was white and the nurse black, the business luncheon led to the dismissal of the doctor by indignant commissioners of the three counties. Her “breach of social tradition” had been so serious, according to the commissioners, that it rendered her unfit to continue in the …
Weapons, Strategies, And Tactics Of The Europeans And The Indians In Sixteenth- And Seventeenth-Century Florida, Barbara A. Purdy
Weapons, Strategies, And Tactics Of The Europeans And The Indians In Sixteenth- And Seventeenth-Century Florida, Barbara A. Purdy
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Indians of Florida were hostile to white explorers, adventurers, colonists, and missionaries from the time of Ponce de León’s encounter in 1513 until 1710 when it was reported, “there remains not now so much as one Village with ten Houses in it, in all Florida, that is subject to the Spaniards.“ These were the Apalachee and Timucua Indians of northwest and central Florida, but it is known that the Tocobago Indians had been destroyed by 1709. The Ais, never many in number, seem to have disappeared sometime during the first half of the eighteenth century, and the Tekesta were …

Elijah Swift's Travel Journal From Massachusetts To Florida, 1857, Florida Historical Society
Elijah Swift's Travel Journal From Massachusetts To Florida, 1857, Florida Historical Society
Florida Historical Quarterly
"From a wretched place...in a wretched car we commenced our wretched ride." Elijah Swift’s remark summarized precisely the way he perceived his journey by rail from New England to Tallahassee-eight days of erratic schedules, lengthy delays, unpredictable hotel accommodations, questionable food, and fatigue. Swift had travelled this same route the year before, and the prospect of making another excursion to Florida could hardly have been attractive. The trip seemed interminable as one was jolted forward in railway car, steamboat, wagon, or stagecoach, and fortunate was the passenger who could doze or enjoy conversation with his companions.
Opposing Views Of La Florida - Alvar Núnez Cabeza De Vaca And El Inca, Jose B. Fernandez
Opposing Views Of La Florida - Alvar Núnez Cabeza De Vaca And El Inca, Jose B. Fernandez
Florida Historical Quarterly
The most thorough description in Spanish letters of La Florida, which extended from the Florida peninsula to Mexico during the period of Spanish exploration, is found in the Relación of Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca. Yet, for centuries, it has been the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega who has enjoyed the undisputed distinction in Spanish literature, as well as in history, of being the “chronicler of Florida.”
Clan Affiliation And Leadership Among The Twentieth-Century Florida Indians, R. T. King
Clan Affiliation And Leadership Among The Twentieth-Century Florida Indians, R. T. King
Florida Historical Quarterly
As late at the 1950s, the Florida Seminoles were among the least acculturated of North American Indians. Three nineteenth-century wars with the United States had ended in defeat for the Seminoles, shattering their political structure and forcing the removal of the great majority of their people to Indian Territory west of the Mississippi. The remnant bands had dispersed into the uninhabited reaches of South Florida, where, largely left to their own devices, they continued to lead a life based on hunting, gathering, and swidden (cut and burn) agriculture. They were not able to resume their rather sophisticated pre-war political structure, …
Race Relations And Florida Gubernatorial Politics Since The Brown Decision, David R. Colburn
Race Relations And Florida Gubernatorial Politics Since The Brown Decision, David R. Colburn
Florida Historical Quarterly
The United States Supreme Court, on May 17, 1954, delivered its famous Brown decision which forbade separate public school systems for black and white children. Reaction throughout most of the South was swift, and among public officials it ranged from hostility and bitterness to mild anger. Georgia’s Governor Herman Talmadge was perhaps the most outspoken in his opposition to the decree: “The United States Supreme Court by its decision today has reduced our Constitution to a mere scrap of paper.” Mississippi’s Senator James Eastland was scarcely less vitriolic: “The South will not abide by nor obey this legislative decision by …

Once three had been snow. There had been vastly blinding seas as hard as rock and bone-penetrating cold. So much had depended upon the game animals that when they fled eastward, over the ice-locked Bering straits, The People followed them into a new land. Here, too, winters were white with swirling blizzards; here too the ice boomed in the rivers like thunder when it broke late in the spring. But not all of The People stayed with winter. Some followed game ever southward toward the spring. During the first few generations of the journey, veterans of it dwelt, first, on …

Visit To The Indian Nations: The Diary Of John Hambly, Daniel J. J. Ross
Florida Historical Quarterly
The early years of the second Spanish period in East Florida constituted a time for transition from British to Spanish administration, and for the establishment of relations between the new Spanish regime and its Indian and Georgian neighbors. These adjustments were carried out under the administration of Governor Vicente Manuel de Zéspedes. His successor, Juan Nepomuceno de Quesada, sought to create an intelligence system so as to learn about events and conditions in the South and among the Indians.
The Struggle For Free Trade In East Florida And The Cédula Of 1793, Janice Borton Miller
The Struggle For Free Trade In East Florida And The Cédula Of 1793, Janice Borton Miller
Florida Historical Quarterly
One of Spain's most critical weaknesses in her effort to hold on to her empire in America in the eighteenth century was her incapacity to produce supplies necessary for her colonists. The Industrial Revolution provided England with goods in universal demand, but Spain had few industrial machines. Nevertheless, she was convinced that control of the trade of her empire brought in the highest profits for both home and colonial markets and provided the stimulus the colonial economies needed for their prosperity.
