Some Military Affairs In Territorial Florida, Albert C. Manucy
Some Military Affairs In Territorial Florida, Albert C. Manucy
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the red and gold banner of Spain was unfurled over the Castillo at St. Augustine on Tuesday morning, July 10, 1821, the Castillo guns roared a salute. Later in the day the cannon fired again, and the 23-star flag of the United States was hoisted above the ramparts beside the Spanish banner. U. S. troops formed near the Castillo. Again the guns thundered, and as the echoes died away, Spain’s flag came slowly down. A detachment from the American force marched over the drawbridge into the Castillo, where the drums beat the change of guard.
The City Of Wreckers: Two Key West Letters Of 1838, Kenneth Scott
The City Of Wreckers: Two Key West Letters Of 1838, Kenneth Scott
Florida Historical Quarterly
At the time of the war with the Seminoles a northern attorney, Charles Walker, spent some time at Key West. While there he sent two detailed letters to an uncle and aunt, Timothy Walker and his wife, Lydia, in his native Concord, New Hampshire. The pleasing style and keen observation of the writer afford a vivid picture of Key West shortly before 1840.

The Alagon, Punon Rostro, And Vargas Grants, T. Frederick Davis
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the year 1803, when public attention was directed to the question of our right of deposit at New Orleans, the United States House of Representatives appointed a committee to report upon certain matters, including the advisability of annexing Spanish East and West Florida to the United States. The report of this committee concluded: “If we look forward to the free use of the Mississippi, the Mobile, the Apalachicola, and the other rivers of the west, by ourselves and our posterity, New-Orleans and the Floridas must become a part of the U. States, either by purchase or by conquest.” This …
Theatrical Entertainment In Early Florida, William G. Dodd
Theatrical Entertainment In Early Florida, William G. Dodd
Florida Historical Quarterly
Theatrical entertainment in early Florida was greatly facilitated by water transportation. The Florida towns with which this story is concerned were all within easy distance, by sea or river, of cities which had well-established professional theatres. They therefore provided actors in those theatres with favorable opportunities to supplement their regular season by a preceding or subsequent engagement; or, sometimes, to fill up part of an otherwise vacant summer.

The Port Of St. Augustine During The British Regime, Part Ii, Wilbur H. Siebert
The Port Of St. Augustine During The British Regime, Part Ii, Wilbur H. Siebert
Florida Historical Quarterly
Loyal to King George III, East Florida soon became involved with her rebellious neighbors to the northward. Wartime was reflected in the shipping at St. Augustine and the privateering in nearby waters. The first hostility of that neighborhood was the seizure of one hundred and eleven barrels and thirty-seven kegs of gunpowder from the English brigantine Betsy in July 1775 by a South Carolina sloop outside the bar. The aggressor escaped to the northward.
Pioneer Florida: Mexican Squadron At Key West, 1827, T. Frederick Davis
Pioneer Florida: Mexican Squadron At Key West, 1827, T. Frederick Davis
Florida Historical Quarterly
All general encyclopedias of American biography include an account of the life of David Porter (1780-1843), United States naval officer, whose exploits while in command of the Essex in the South Pacific in the War of 1812, remain a saga in the history of our early navy. These accounts, however, do not include an important event in Commodore Porter’s career, the scene of which was laid at and around Key West, Florida, in 1827, and therefore is a part of Florida’s history.
Notes On The “Catalogo De Los Fondos De Las Floridas", Albert C. Manucy
Notes On The “Catalogo De Los Fondos De Las Floridas", Albert C. Manucy
Florida Historical Quarterly
The reference is to the great Mississippi, and on this keynote is sounded the broad theme of Catalogo de los Fondos de las Floridas, which, in free translation might be titled “Catalog of the Florida Papers.” Published in format similar to the well-known Carnegie archival guides, the book is an illuminating index to an interesting period in the history of the area between Savannah and New Orleans, from the Florida Keys to the lower Mississippi Valley.
The Negro Abraham, Kenneth W. Porter
The Negro Abraham, Kenneth W. Porter
Florida Historical Quarterly
One of the most remarkable personalities produced by the African race in this country before general emancipation was an illiterate runaway slave who spent almost all his mature life among Seminole Indians. This judgment is, perhaps, either too cautious to be meaningful or too bold to be convincing, according to the direction from which one chooses to approach it.

Intersections Of Race And Place In Short Fiction By New Orleans Gens De Couleur Libres, Adrienne D. Vivian
Intersections Of Race And Place In Short Fiction By New Orleans Gens De Couleur Libres, Adrienne D. Vivian
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Although New Orleans joined the United States following the Louisiana Purchase, the city’s French colonial period continued to influence New Orleanians. The lives and writing of nineteenth century New Orleans gens de couleur libres, free people of color, document continued exchanges with France and the Caribbean despite the city’s increasing Americanization. Drawing from Westphal’s theoretical work on geocriticism, Intersections of Race and Place in Short Fiction by New Orleans Gens de Couleur Libres locates sites of transgressivity and their representations in writers Michel Séligny, Adolphe Duhart, and Victor Séjour’s French language short stories. Chapter One examines New Orleans’s historical and …
“Telling The Trauma: Fiction Of Black Lives & Death”, Frank Dobson
“Telling The Trauma: Fiction Of Black Lives & Death”, Frank Dobson
Far West Popular Culture Association Annual Conference
Black trauma and death, particularly by racially motivated violence, represents a significant contemporary crisis in America. Even prior to the Black Lives Matter movement of recent years, several Black writers chronicled historical incidents of such deaths. Philadelphia Fire (2005), by John Edgar Wideman, is a novel inspired by the 1985 police bombing of the Move compound and the resultant deaths of eleven Black people and the destruction by fire of a Black neighborhood. Those Bones Are Not My Child (1999), by Toni Cade Bambara examines the serial killings during the early 1980’s known as the Atlanta Child Murders. Rendered Invisible: …

The brothers Lemoyne began Louisiana’s war against Mexico, as told in part one of this narrative. Francois Blondel de la Tour continued it. One month after the fall of San Carlos (at Pensacola bay) the commandant of Natchitoches led the six men remaining in his garrison against San Miguel de Adaes, the nearest Spanish mission of Texas. He captured one of the two Spanish soldiers. who formed the garrison there, but neither Blondel nor Governor Alarcon at Mission Dolores (near Nacogdoches, Texas) possessed military strength for further operations. Natchitoches waited in stalemate until the Company of the Indies should open …
Historic Artifacts And The Buzzard Cult In Florida, John W. Griffin
Historic Artifacts And The Buzzard Cult In Florida, John W. Griffin
Florida Historical Quarterly
An extensive literature on the archaeology of Florida has been amassed over a considerable number of years. By far the greater part of this literature is purely descriptive, and it is the purpose of this paper to take some of the older materials and interpret them in the light of current archaeological knowledge; knowledge which has advanced at an almost breathtaking rate in the past decade. For our purposes we shall select seven related artifacts from southern Florida; made of gold, silver, brass, stone and wood.
Physicians And Medicine In Early Jacksonville, Webster Merritt
Physicians And Medicine In Early Jacksonville, Webster Merritt
Florida Historical Quarterly
During the years 1829 to 1833, New Ross, a typical plantation of the early nineteenth century, lay on the border of the St. Johns river about four miles above Jacksonville. Of the happenings on the plantation Judge F. Bethune, its owner, kept a comprehensive account in his diary. On Friday, April 5, 1833, he wrote, “Andrew sick.” On Monday, April 8, he recorded, “Went to Jacksonville court Andrew sick,” and on the following day he added, “at Jacksonville returned before dinner with Dr. Hall had Andrew bled.” This account of the treatment of one of Judge Bethune’s slaves in accordance …
