The Alonso Solana Map Of Florida, 1683, Luis Rafael Arana
The Alonso Solana Map Of Florida, 1683, Luis Rafael Arana
Florida Historical Quarterly
Map No. 7 at the end of Verne E. Chatelain’s The Defenses of Spanish Florida 1565-1763 is entitled Mapa de la Ysla de la Florida. It is of Spanish origin, but its printed legend admits the anonymity of the cartographer and the uncertainty of the date. Although Woodbury Lowery listed maps from the same repository, he was unaware of the existence of this one. It was Professor Louis C. Karpinski of the University of Michigan who discovered this paper representation of Florida in the war ministry in Madrid, while searching for American history materials in Spanish archives. His original typed …

Florida's First Railroad Commission 1887-1891 (Part Ii), Durward Long
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Florida Railroad Commission was created by the legislature in 1887, and by August of that year its activities were underway. The Commission, in March of 1888, transmitted its first report to Governor Henry L. Mitchell. Although the report was overly optimistic and somewhat exaggerated, it did show that procedure and precedent had been determined. The Commissioners, George McWhorter, Enoch Vann, and William Himes had energetically approached their assigned task, but despite hopeful predictions for a successful second year, the Commission discovered many obstacles in its way. The new year began with a policy which disappointed small companies which had …
Military Operations On The St. Johns, September-October 1862 (Part I), Edwin C. Bearss
Military Operations On The St. Johns, September-October 1862 (Part I), Edwin C. Bearss
Florida Historical Quarterly
As the months passed the Union blockade of the Southern coast increased in effectiveness. To make matters worse for the Confederacy, Union amphibious commands were put ashore at a number of points, vital ports and strategic forts were seized, and the number of points at which blockade runners could land their valuable cargos were constantly reduced. On the east coast of Florida, Fernandina, Fort Clinch, Jacksonville, and St. Augustine had been occupied by the Federals in March, 1862. The following month, Jacksonville was evacuated by the Unionists.
The Ku Klux Klan In The Sunshine State: The 1920'S, David Chalmers
The Ku Klux Klan In The Sunshine State: The 1920'S, David Chalmers
Florida Historical Quarterly
The guiding maxim in Florida politics has long been said to be “Every Man For Himself’ and the same principle of anarchic localism seems to have prevailed in Klan affairs. The story of the Florida Ku Klux Klan in the 1920’s was not one of a large statewide organization but rather that of a myriad of growing, active individual Klaverns.
The Settlement Of The East Florida Spaniards In Cuba, 1763-1766, Robert L. Gold
The Settlement Of The East Florida Spaniards In Cuba, 1763-1766, Robert L. Gold
Florida Historical Quarterly
Ten months were required to complete the evacuation of the Spanish population from the St. Augustine presidio. From April 12, 1763, to January 21, 1764, a junta of Governor Melchor Feliu, Don Juan Elixio de la Puente, and Esteban de Pena carefully escorted 3,103 persons to wafting vessels bound for Cuba or New Spain. The evacuees embarked for Havana, Cuba, except for thirty-four people who were later transported to San Francisco de Campeche, New Spain. During the entire movement there were only four casualties from the shipwreck of the sloop “Nuestra Senora del Rosario.” By April 16, 1764, former Governor …

Florida Books From University Presses, Herbert J. Doherty, Jr.
Florida Books From University Presses, Herbert J. Doherty, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
Three universities in the state of Florida now support presses devoted to the publication of scholarly and worthwhile books. The publication of volumes dealing with the history of Florida has been one of their important functions. The oldest of the presses is that founded in 1945 at the University of Florida. Its first publication was a brief history of the state, Rembert W. Patrick’s Florida Under Five Flags. Since its first appearance it has gone through three editions and has been a perennial bestseller. Since 1945, under the direction of Lewis F. Haines, the University of Florida Press has turned …

Newspaper Mottoes In Ante-Bellum Florida, William Warren Rogers
Newspaper Mottoes In Ante-Bellum Florida, William Warren Rogers
Florida Historical Quarterly
Southern newspapers before the Civil War were individualistic, caustic, and for the most part politically partisan. The typical newspaper devoted a page to foreign news, contained a section devoted to literary items, and had an outspoken editorial page. Editors borrowed liberally from each other, usually but not always citing the sources of their borrowings. The last page was filled with advertisements but they were also scattered throughout the paper, frequently appearing on page one.
Florida's 1926 Senatorial Primary, Wayne Flynt
Florida's 1926 Senatorial Primary, Wayne Flynt
Florida Historical Quarterly
If historical speculation were profitable, few Florida elections would offer more possibilities than the Democratic Senatorial primary of 1926. An election which ended as a routine skirmish between an entrenched incumbent, Duncan U. Fletcher, and a relatively obscure politico, Jerry W. Carter, could have been a struggle for political survival. To fully comprehend the possibilities of 1926, it is necessary to review some historical antecedents.
Federal Relations With The Apalachicola Indians, 1823-1838, James W. Covington
Federal Relations With The Apalachicola Indians, 1823-1838, James W. Covington
Florida Historical Quarterly
In Grant Foreman's outstanding book Indian Removal, the classic account of the Five Civilized Tribes’ movement from the southeastern United States into Indian Territory, the author introduces the Seminole section with the following words: "In the dishonorable record of our dealings with the Indians there is perhaps no blacker chapter than that relating to the Seminole people." l Certainly when we think of the Seminoles we recall broken treaties, dogs tracking Indians through the swamps and the capture of Osceola while protected by a flag of truce. One rather shady phase of the Seminole removal which has been somewhat neglected …

Florida's First Railroad Commission, 1887-1891, Durward W. Long
Florida Historical Quarterly
The purchase of four million acres of land from the State of Florida by Hamilton Disston at the rate of $.25 an acre brought with it several important developments. Funds received by the state from this purchase enabled the trustees of the Internal Improvement Fund to free state land from litigation which had prevented the sale of land under their control. After the sale, the trustees were free once more to extend land grants to railroad companies. The practical effect was a great increase in railroad construction in the years following. Between 1880 and 1888 the mileage of track increased …

The Editor's Corner, Florida Historical Society
Florida Historical Quarterly
The following interesting letter has been made available to the Quarterly through the good offices of Paul L. Maddock and Judge James R. Knott. It was secured by Miss Mary Stavely of Palm Beach on a recent trip to England. The writer, Tom Agar, was the great-uncle of Mrs. Vera Pickard, Kirby Muxloe, Leicestershire, England. This was the only letter received in England from Agar, and his eventual fate is unknown.

Florida Historical Quarterly
The editors commend to the careful attention of all of our readers the provocative lead article in this number written by Dr. Charles W. Arnade of the University of South Florida. Few will agree with everything that is said in it, but the editors believe that it is a fair representation of the cavalier disregard for the historical heritage of Florida which is shown by too many of our citizens who should know better.
