Another Road To Disappearance: Assimiliation Of Creek Indians In Pensacola, Florida, During The Nineteenth Century, Jane E. Dysart
Another Road To Disappearance: Assimiliation Of Creek Indians In Pensacola, Florida, During The Nineteenth Century, Jane E. Dysart
Florida Historical Quarterly
In historical accounts of the old South, Indians are customarily treated as participants only in the frontier phase of colonial rivalry and during the era of territorial expansion. With the removal of the Indians to lands west of the Mississippi, southern history becomes the story of a white-dominated society composed almost exclusively of whites and blacks. The diversity of Indian-white and Indian-black relationships during the early years of the antebellum era is rarely part of the story, nor is the account of the Indians who remained behind included in the traditional narratives. Yet Indians constituted a third ethnic group in …
Politics Of Patronage: Florida Republicans During The Hoover Administration, David J. Ginzl
Politics Of Patronage: Florida Republicans During The Hoover Administration, David J. Ginzl
Florida Historical Quarterly
On November 6, 1928, Republican presidential candidate Herbert Clark Hoover won a national landslide victory, receiving over fifty-eight per cent of the popular vote and carrying all but eight states. Among the states supporting Hoover were Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, and Florida, the first Republican victories in these southern states since Reconstruction more than a half century earlier.
Cuban Patriots In Key West, 1878-1886: Guardians At The Separatist Ideal, Gerald E. Poyo
Cuban Patriots In Key West, 1878-1886: Guardians At The Separatist Ideal, Gerald E. Poyo
Florida Historical Quarterly
The signing of the Zanjón Pact in February 1878 signaled the termination of the Cuban Ten Years War, the first phase of the island’s efforts to gain freedom from Spain. However, for many Cubans the treaty represented only a temporary setback, and in Key West it was clear from the start the community would not accept the pact. During the next decade separatist activity continued unabated, though actual fighting was sporadic at best and never a serious threat to Spanish domination.

The Equal Rights Amendment And The Florida Legislature, Joan S. Carver
The Equal Rights Amendment And The Florida Legislature, Joan S. Carver
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Equal Rights Amendment to the United States Constitution was one of the most volatile and divisive issues facing the Florida legislature in the 1970s. Lobbying was active on the issue, shifts in support by legislators were frequent, and votes closely divided. Adding to the intensity of the deliberations was the importance of the Florida vote. By 1977 thirty-five states had approved the amendment, only three states short of the thirty-eight necessary for adoption. Despite vigorous efforts on its behalf, the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was not ratified by the Florida legislature, and Florida was joined in history with those …
Plantation Self-Sufficiency In Leon County, Florida: 1824-1860, Margaret T. Ordonez
Plantation Self-Sufficiency In Leon County, Florida: 1824-1860, Margaret T. Ordonez
Florida Historical Quarterly
Economic independence from the North was a desired goal of antebellum southern leaders of the nineteenth century. Southern Commercial Convention participants strongly supported such independence at their meetings held irregularly between 1837 and 1860. They proposed that Southerners should trade directly with Europe for manufactured goods in exchange for cotton and other products produced in the South. In Leon County, Florida, newly-settled planters had arranged for direct trade with Liverpool by 1831. Plantation supplies such as Negro clothes and blankets, bagging, iron, and salt from Liverpool sold at lower prices than similar goods from New York in 1835. Although the …

South Florida In 1860, Rodney E. Dillon, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
On the eve of the Civil War, the southern half of the Florida peninsula remained the last great coastal frontier region east of the Mississippi River. Although the 700-mile coastline from Tampa Bay to the northern Indian River, embracing the Florida Keys, had been charted since the eighteenth century, much of this land was still unsettled. Despite the recent activity brought about by the Second and Third Seminole Indian wars, the vast interior was, for the most part, unexplored. Although growth was slow, settlement and economic activity were steadily increasing. Despite its unsettled condition, south Florida’s proximity to the rest …

Engineers Vs Florida's Green Menace, George E. Buker
Engineers Vs Florida's Green Menace, George E. Buker
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the late 1880s or early 1890s (sources are vague as to the exact time), people living along the St. Johns River were enthralled by the addition of a beautiful floating water plant to the river’s scenery. Above a luxuriant green base towered a spike of purple flowers. Steamboat operators were pleased when the tourists admired the drifting bouquets gliding by their vessels. Cattlemen along the river were enthused at the prospect of a new cheap fodder for their stock. They gathered bundles of the floating greenery to carry upriver for propagation in their ponds and streams. Mr. Fuller, owner …

Tampa And The New Urban South: The Weight Strike Of 1899, Gary R. Mormino
Tampa And The New Urban South: The Weight Strike Of 1899, Gary R. Mormino
Florida Historical Quarterly
"The decade of the nineties is the watershed of American history," wrote Henry Steele Commager in The American Mind. The case of Tampa, Florida, in this period reinforces Commager’s suggestive thesis that the ten years before the beginning of the twentieth century ushered in modern values accompanied by a profound population change, economic transformation, and urban problems. War, immigration, urbanization, racial turmoil, labor strife, and industrialization— crises of the nineties— helped forge the transformation of Tampa during this era which resulted in the 1899 “Huelga de la Pesa,” (the Weight Strike) and its aftermath.

Wherever The Fight Is Thickest: General James Patton Anderson Of Florida, Larry Rayburn
Wherever The Fight Is Thickest: General James Patton Anderson Of Florida, Larry Rayburn
Florida Historical Quarterly
On the night of October 8, 1861, in the harbor of Pensacola Bay, long columns of gray clad soldiers marched slowly aboard steamers moored by the dock. Officers whispered orders, and the enlisted men spoke in hushed tones. Aside from their voices, only the rattle of canteens and the lapping of water against the steamers broke the silence of the autumn darkness.
The Southern Indians In The War Of 1812: The Closing Phase, John Sugden
The Southern Indians In The War Of 1812: The Closing Phase, John Sugden
Florida Historical Quarterly
It has been conventional to equate the conflict between the southern Indians and the United States during the War of 1812 with the Creek war of 1813-1814. More correctly, however, there were three stages of the fighting, each emanating from standing grievances against the Americans nursed by Creek and Seminole bands, but receiving their initial impetus from separate sources. In 1812 and 1813, the Seminoles and their Negro allies, rallied by the Spanish who were concerned to protect their possessions in the south from American filibusters, participated in a number of skirmishes. A second phase of Indian hostility to the …

Florida And The Royal Navy's Floridas, Robert R. Rea
Florida And The Royal Navy's Floridas, Robert R. Rea
Florida Historical Quarterly
The naming of ships, like the naming of babies, may depend upon the most whimsical of circumstances, yet in both instances some significance is apt to lie behind the name. Just as the adoption of a long-hallowed family name displays a pride of ancestry, the attachment of a place-name to a ship reflects a certain territorial pride. So it was with the great battleships of the United States Navy that bore such names as Florida and Alabama — the latter now enshrined in Mobile Bay. It is a matter of considerable historical curiosity, however, to find the name of Florida …
Postscript To The Martin Tabert Case: Peonage As Usual In The Florida Turpentine Camps, Jerrell H. Shofner
Postscript To The Martin Tabert Case: Peonage As Usual In The Florida Turpentine Camps, Jerrell H. Shofner
Florida Historical Quarterly
In 1923 NAACP Secretary James Weldon Johnson wrote the editor of the New York World thanking him for the paper’s exposure of brutality in the Florida turpentine camps which had caused the state legislature to abolish the leasing of county convicts to private companies. Himself a product of the progressive era and a believer in man’s ability to reform his society through positive legislation, Johnson wrote that “ending this evil” was “a long step toward the ending of peonage.” The state had already been prohibited in 1919 from leasing its prisoners to private firms, but counties had continued the practice …
Billy Graham In Florida, Lois Ferm
Billy Graham In Florida, Lois Ferm
Florida Historical Quarterly
Billy Graham who suffered periodic attacks of influenza when he was a young boy, first came to Florida because the doctors hoped that a warm climate would restore his health. However, in terms of his career in evangelism, his decision to move South seems almost providential, for as a student at the Florida Bible Institute in Tampa in the 1930s, he was exposed to a veritable “Who’s Who” of evangelical giants. As a high school student, Billy had accepted the claims of Jesus Christ on his life and had surrendered his life to Christ in a revival service held in …
Florida Seminoles And The Census Of 1900, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
Florida Seminoles And The Census Of 1900, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
One of the most persistent problems confronting historians dealing with the Seminole Indians in Florida during the late-nineteenth century has been a paucity of reliable population data. In the first four decades of the modern tribal era, the years following cessation of the Third Seminole War in 1858, there was only one attempt at a comprehensive account of Florida Seminoles. That was a survey conducted in the winter of 1880-1881 by Clay MacCauley for the Smithsonian Institution, which yielded what has become the generally accepted base line population figures. He found 208 Seminoles residing in the state, the unhappy remnant …
