The Cowkeeper Dynasty Of The Seminole Nation, Kenneth W. Porter
The Cowkeeper Dynasty Of The Seminole Nation, Kenneth W. Porter
Florida Historical Quarterly
It is generally agreed that the sons - or possibly nephews, at any rate the immediate successors - of the Alachua chief, who it was suggested in a previous article was Cowkeeper rather than Secoffee, - that these sons were Payne and Bowlegs. Sprague is probably correct when he writes of the former, “Payne was of a different character from his father and not to be led astray and blinded by absurd revelations and traditions. Though a bold and intrepid warrior, he cared more for the happiness of his people than the indulgence of vicious passions, or the influences of …
Settlers From Connecticut In Spanish Florida: Letters Of Ambrose Hull And Stella Hart 1804-1806, Robert E. Rutherford
Settlers From Connecticut In Spanish Florida: Letters Of Ambrose Hull And Stella Hart 1804-1806, Robert E. Rutherford
Florida Historical Quarterly
Florida was the northern bastion of Spain’s New World empire from an early period; and, except for brief British possession (1763-1783), the land was hers for almost three hundred years. The era following 1783, when Great Britain returned Florida to Spain, until 1821, when Florida became United States territory, is known as the second Spanish period of Florida history.
De Soto’S Ucita And The Terra Ceia Site, Ripley P. Bullen
De Soto’S Ucita And The Terra Ceia Site, Ripley P. Bullen
Florida Historical Quarterly
Any Indian site to qualify as De Soto’s Ucita must possess geographical attributes which agree with those assignable to that site by close reading of the De Soto narratives. This paper examines only the claim of the well-known, large Indian site at Terra Ceia, on the east side of McGill Bay. For this purpose Shaws Point on Tampa Bay is assumed to be the landing place of De Soto’s expedition, although that identification has been questioned by some.

De Soto’S First Headquarters In Florida, John R. Swanton
De Soto’S First Headquarters In Florida, John R. Swanton
Florida Historical Quarterly
Knowing that Hernando de Soto, his expedition, and the places he visited will probably be matters of discussion for years and years, I have not recently ventured any further contributions regarding them. However, challenge of one of my conclusions, the probable site of the Indian town of Ucita where De Soto established his first North American headquarters, has recently been made in a scientifically motivated paper (“The Terra Ceia Site, Manatee County, Florida.” No. 3 of the Publications of the Florida Anthropological Society, by Ripley P. Bullen), and this calls for some comments.

The Addison Blockhouse, John W. Griffin
The Addison Blockhouse, John W. Griffin
Florida Historical Quarterly
The so-called Addison blockhouse, situated on the old Addison grant near the Tomoka River in coastal Volusia County, has long been an enigma. The alternatives of dating suggested by persons interested in it have ranged from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century, and its builders have variously been claimed to have been Spaniards, Englishmen, or Americans. In order to lay plans for a valid interpretation of the structure to the public, the Florida Park Service undertook a study to determine its origin and history.
The Early Career Of Edwin T. Jenckes: A Florida Pioneer Of The 1830’S, Earl C. Tanner
The Early Career Of Edwin T. Jenckes: A Florida Pioneer Of The 1830’S, Earl C. Tanner
Florida Historical Quarterly
A leader of the eastern faction in early state politics was Edwin T. Jenckes, known to his adversaries as “‘the fat man of Florida.” Jenckes was a delegate to the St. Joseph Constitutional Convention of 1838-39 and apparently commanded a large following, for he was designated chairman of two committees. According to the opposition press, he weighed 450 to 500 pounds and was “the greatest” man at the convention. It was alleged that he “retained in his own person, all the management, tact, industry and talent of the whole eastern delegation” and that he, himself, voted five proxies. In case …
Education In St. Augustine 1821-1845, Frank G. Lewis
Education In St. Augustine 1821-1845, Frank G. Lewis
Florida Historical Quarterly
The struggle for free public schools, particularly in certain cities and states, even in whole regions, has often revolved about historical issues such as those concerned with social and economic classes, taxation, and religion. Some observable differences in the development of school systems in the various regions of America can be traced to the different influences of the cultural heritages of the English and Spanish colonists. The struggle for a free school in St. Augustine during the territorial period exemplifies the evolution of an ever increasing conviction of a need for a system of schools to train the youth of …

France To The Rescue: An Episode Of The Florida Border, 1797, Richard K. Murdoch
France To The Rescue: An Episode Of The Florida Border, 1797, Richard K. Murdoch
Florida Historical Quarterly
The reversal of international alliances pursuant to the Treaty of Basel of 1795 returned Spain to her former position as an ally of France. By the terms of this document, however, Spain found herself in a position considerably more subserviant than that assigned her by the alliances of 1761 and 1762. 1 Her Caribbean colonies, heretofore the prey of France, were now opened to possible English attack. East Florida lying close to Cuba and the Bahama Channel, thus in a strategic position, was one of the points most exposed to enemy attack. Constant troop withdrawals rendered the defense of this …
Fort Pupo: A Spanish Frontier Outpost, John M. Goggin
Fort Pupo: A Spanish Frontier Outpost, John M. Goggin
Florida Historical Quarterly
From the viewpoint of anthropological analysis one of the most interesting aspects of the study of man is what happens when two cultures meet. When is there an integration of elements, and when an overwhelming of one culture by the other? Precisely what happened when the Spanish and Indians came together has been a fascinating subject of study by many archaeologists in Florida in recent years. It was exactly this problem which turned us from our study of the missions where Spanish priests and Indians came together to a consideration of the similar meeting of Spanish soldiers and Indians. Fort …
Confederate Finance: A Documentary Study Of A Proposal Of David L. Yulee, Arthur W. Thompson
Confederate Finance: A Documentary Study Of A Proposal Of David L. Yulee, Arthur W. Thompson
Florida Historical Quarterly
The growth of total war in the twentieth century has increasingly focused our attention on the importance and role of domestic economic relationships, particularly those concerned with fiscal policy. The problem of financing a war effort is not a new one however, and the outcome of many a struggle has hinged upon its effective solution. In the case of the American Civil War, a contemporary historian has written: “One of the most fundamental causes of the ultimate failure of the Confederacy lay in its unwise financial policies.“ 1 That the failure to devise an effective fiscal structure was a contributory …

Archeology Of The Tampa Bay Area, Ripley P. Bullen
Archeology Of The Tampa Bay Area, Ripley P. Bullen
Florida Historical Quarterly
While we speak of archeology as pre-history, it is as much a part of the history of any region as that which is recorded contemporaneously in writing, even though it does not relate to our own ancestors. So two of the papers read at our annual meeting were on Florida archeology. Ripley P. Bullen, Assistant Florida State Archeologist recounted the highlights of what has been learned of the central west coast.

The Seminole War: Its Background And Onset, Mark F. Boyd
The Seminole War: Its Background And Onset, Mark F. Boyd
Florida Historical Quarterly
The action generally known as the Dade Massacre is an event which cannot be adequately understood if viewed by itself, since it was but one aspect of an explosion occurring in the winter of 1835-1836 which rocked the Territory of Florida. The explosion was the culmination of the mounting tension between the whites on the one hand, and red and black on the other, whose origins antedated the acquisition of Florida by the United States. This crisis must be viewed in the perspective of, and against the background formed by the forces from which it developed. It is attempted here …
