The Tribulations Of Denys Rolle, Charles L. Mowat
The Tribulations Of Denys Rolle, Charles L. Mowat
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the brief and generally uneventful history of British East Florida greatest interest has, perhaps, attached to the two unusual experiments in colonization which were carried on in the province at New Smyrna and Rollestown. The history of both has been told by Carita Doggett Corse, 1 and to her work there is little to add. It is, however, possible to give some new light on the early difficulties which Denys Rolle met with in his attempts to establish his colony.

The Neon Bible, From Page To Screen: John Kennedy Toole’S Portrait Of Small-Town Southern Life, Heather Duerre Humann
The Neon Bible, From Page To Screen: John Kennedy Toole’S Portrait Of Small-Town Southern Life, Heather Duerre Humann
Study the South
Louisiana-born writer John Kennedy Toole (1937–1969) represents the South in such a way that stereotypes about the region are brought to bear, he also uses his novels -- his short novel, The Neon Bible (1989), and in his better-known tragicomic novel, A Confederacy of Dunces (1980) -- to question the culture of the South. In this manner, Toole offers a multifaceted portrait of the region while also raising questions about the nature of representation.

The Spring Grove Guards, Samuel E. Cobb
Florida Historical Quarterly
It was in the spring of 1835, a few months before the actual commencement of that long, harrassing conflict between the Indians of Florida and the whites. Pioneer settlers in Florida had been subject to sporadic attacks by the Indians for many months. A few lives had been lost but, at this time, the conflict between the Indians, who claimed prior possession of the country, and the whites, who claimed ownership under the treaties of 1823 and 1832 had hardly reached a state of warfare.
Pioneer Florida: A Free Public School In St. Augustine, 1832, T. Frederick Davis
Pioneer Florida: A Free Public School In St. Augustine, 1832, T. Frederick Davis
Florida Historical Quarterly
This is an account of the first public school, under the American system of support by property taxation, established in Florida after it became a possession of the United States by transfer from Spain in 1821. The school was opened in St. Augustine in 1832, and these facts concerning it are derived largely from the contemporaneous St. Augustine Florida Herald, copies of which are in the Library of Congress. Apparently there are no extant official records of the establishment of this school, and it seems to be unknown to writers on Florida’s early educational movements. Therefore, the ordinances concerning the …

The Wrecking Business On The Florida Reef, 1822-1860, Dorothy Dodd
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Gulf of Mexico is a great inland sea with two outlets, the Canal de Yucatan between Yucatan and Cuba, and the Straits of Florida between Cuba and Florida. Because of the adverse winds and currents that prevail in the former for eight months of the year, and especially that part of the year when the great ante-bellum cotton crop was moved to market, sailing ships never attempted to make the outward passage through the Yucatan Pass. Consequently, the commerce of the western ports, of New Orleans and Galveston, Apalachicola and Mobile, passed through the Florida Straits. Likewise, shipping from …

Tequesta, The Journal Of The Historical Association Of Southern Florida, Florida Historical Society
Florida Historical Quarterly
The third issue of Tequesta, The Journal of the Historical Association of Southern Florida, appeared while our last number was in press. The issue was edited by Dr. Charlton W. Tebeau of the University of Miami, with an advisory editorial board of Gaines R. Wilson, Marjory Stoneman Douglas, Dr. Robert E. McNicoll, and Leonard R. Muller. While war conditions have reduced its size, the high quality of former numbers is maintained.

Pioneer Florida: Admission To Statehood, 1845, T. Frederick Davis
Florida Historical Quarterly
Florida added the twenty-seventh star So the flag of the United States, Texas the twenty-eighth, and Iowa the twenty-ninth. By an act of Congress March 3, 1845, the territories of Florida and Iowa were authorized to enter the Union as states if and when they should meet the requirements for admission to statehood. The joint admission followed a policy designed to maintain a balance of power in Congress upon the serious questions of the times, mainly slavery, by admitting a Northern and a Southern territory together.

The Antillean Problem In Florida Archeology, John W. Griffin
The Antillean Problem In Florida Archeology, John W. Griffin
Florida Historical Quarterly
Almost since the beginning of archeological studies in Florida the problem of aboriginal relations between Florida and the Antilles has concerned investigators. Many similarities, both archeological and ethnological, between the two areas have been noted. It shall be the purpose of this paper to discuss several aspects of the problem.
Spanish Grants In British West Florida, N. Howard
Spanish Grants In British West Florida, N. Howard
Florida Historical Quarterly
One of the lesser but puzzling questions in British policy following the Seven Years’ War has always been why Lord Bute’s ministry gave up the strategic citadel of Havana in return for what the opponents of the treaty in England called the barren swamp of Florida. There are a number of reasonably logical explanations for the action, but thus far no certainty has emerged from the study of the maze of diplomatic correspondence which preceded the Treaty of Paris; and there still remains unproven the very important explanation that the action was more the result of internal politics in Britain …
Privateering In Florida Waters And Northwards: During The Revolution, Wilbur H. Siebert
Privateering In Florida Waters And Northwards: During The Revolution, Wilbur H. Siebert
Florida Historical Quarterly
With the outbreak of the Revolution East Florida, remaining loyal to the British crown, was cut off from intercourse and trade with the rebellious colonies to the north and was victimized by privateers. The province could no longer import its food supplies from its neighbors, and cargoes of munitions, ordnance stores, and domestic goods from England were subject to capture at sea. By the same method St. Augustine sought to avenge and reimburse herself for her losses.
Pioneer Florida: Indian Key And Wrecking In 1833, T. Frederick Davis
Pioneer Florida: Indian Key And Wrecking In 1833, T. Frederick Davis
Florida Historical Quarterly
Indian Key, one of the upper keys off its southeast coast, crept into the history of Florida during the Seminole war when on August 7, 1840, it was attacked by Indians who killed the noted horticulturist and botanist Dr. Henry Perrine, resident of the island since December 1838. This event has been well covered by historical writers, but little is known of the situation at Indian Key prior to that time. An interesting account of conditions at Indian Key was published by the Charleston Mercury in 1833. The writer seems to have been a keen observer and it is believed …

Local Histories, Florida Historical Society
Florida Historical Quarterly
Local history, in the aggregate, is as important as that of a country, and is of far greater interest to the majority. In comparison its bulk is huge, but little of it was recorded until the daily newspaper incidentally took up the job of preserving a record of the happenings of the community. The pioneer settlements of Florida had no newspapers of course, for with the first issue of a paper any village became a town overnight. The settlement of Florida can be considered as beginning with its cession to the United States (and this is not to start a …
