Conservation And Reutilization Of The Castillo De San Marcos And Fort Matanzas, Luis Rafael Arana
Conservation And Reutilization Of The Castillo De San Marcos And Fort Matanzas, Luis Rafael Arana
Florida Historical Quarterly
On July 10, 1821, at four o’clock in the afternoon, Spanish gunners in the Castillo de San Marcos in St. Augustine fired a twenty-one gun salute. On the last round they lowered the royal colors and marched out of the fortification, abandoning twenty-five pieces of unserviceable artillery. Passing in front of the line of American soldiers waiting to enter the Castillo, the Spanish soldiers exchanged salutes with the representatives of the new proprietors of the Florida territory. Five days earlier, ruined Fort Matanzas, some twenty kilometers south of St. Augustine at Matanzas Inlet, had been evacuated by its three-man garrison, …
Jacksonville In The Progressive Era: Responses To Urban Growth, James B. Crooks
Jacksonville In The Progressive Era: Responses To Urban Growth, James B. Crooks
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the first two decades of the twentieth century, Jacksonville, Florida, became a substantial southern city. Its population more than tripled from 28,428 to 91,558, as it jumped from the nineteenth to the twelfth largest city in the Southeast. Construction, after the great fire of 1901, of skyscrapers, a new city hall, court house, library, high schools, modern department stores, and a palatial railroad station created a cosmopolitan downtown. Expanding suburbs in Riverside, Murray Hill, Springfield, and across the St. Johns River in South Jacksonville provided the physical and social separation of work and home life that characterized cities across …
Groveland: Florida's Little Scottsboro, Steven F. Lawson
Groveland: Florida's Little Scottsboro, Steven F. Lawson
Florida Historical Quarterly
The residents of Lake County, Florida, awoke on the morning of July 16, 1949, to a drama that was hauntingly familiar and yet disturbingly different. Word passed quickly through the area of small towns and rural communities that before dawn on this summer Sunday’s white woman had been attacked and raped by four black men near Groveland. In the past, such crimes had stirred lynch mobs into acts of vengeance, and this occasion proved no exception. However, in this instance, blood-thirsty vigilantes did not succeed in rendering summary punishment, but they partially achieved their objectives through lawful means. Although lynching …

Brokers, Binders, And Builders: Greater Miami's Boom Of The Mid-1920s, Paul S. George
Brokers, Binders, And Builders: Greater Miami's Boom Of The Mid-1920s, Paul S. George
Florida Historical Quarterly
Six decades have passed since greater Miami and all the rest of Florida were immersed in an orgy of land speculation and a vast array of construction projects referred to as the boom. Miami and its environs were the storm center of the boom, which began to reach fever pitch in 1924. This speculative period crested in the latter part of 1925, when the price of land rose to unheard of heights, and construction commenced on a myriad of ambitious building projects. The boom ended in 1926.

"Florida Is A Blessed Country": Letters To Iowa From A Florida Settler, Pat Sonquist Lane
"Florida Is A Blessed Country": Letters To Iowa From A Florida Settler, Pat Sonquist Lane
Florida Historical Quarterly
Letters from settlers have provided information and insights into the early history of our country. The letters here are about Gainesville and Charlotte Harbor, Florida, between 1885 and 1887, and were written by J. Albert Erickson, who had moved from north central Iowa to Florida in 1874. Erickson’s letters were sent to John A. Lindberg, editor of the Dayton (Iowa) Review, who published them.
Steamboat Activity In Florida During The Second Seminole Indian War, Edward A. Mueller
Steamboat Activity In Florida During The Second Seminole Indian War, Edward A. Mueller
Florida Historical Quarterly
A significant stimulus to the development of steamboat activity in Florida was the Second Seminole Indian War (1835-1842). The war was a difficult one for the United States to wage. Transportation by water played a key role. The conflict involved a substantial number of steamboats. Because of a lack of roads, they served as logical and logistical answers to military needs. Army facilities located on or near navigable waters, like the St. Johns River and its tributaries, could be supplied by steamboats. With few exceptions steamboats were primarily used for military purposes and usually did not cater to civilians. However, …
Demographic Patterns And Changes In Mid-Seventeenth Century Timucua And Apalchee, John H. Hann
Demographic Patterns And Changes In Mid-Seventeenth Century Timucua And Apalchee, John H. Hann
Florida Historical Quarterly
Surprisingly little is known about the village patterns of northern Florida’s natives prior to their missionization or about the settlement policy followed by the friars during the formation of the Florida mission chains. This is particularly true for the inland missions of Potano, Utina, Ustaca, and Apalachee. There is no evidence that the Florida Franciscans followed the “reduction" approach of their Jesuit contemporaries in the South American mission provinces of Guaira, Itatin, Tape and Paraguay, whose people had a material culture roughly similar to that of North Florida’s missionized tribes. Thus, it is generally assumed that the friars adapted their …

"The Nest Of Vile Fanatics": William N. Sheats And The Orange Park School, Joe M. Richardson
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the Orange Park Normal and Industrial School opened October 7, 1891, probably none of the excited participants imagined that within three years the school would incur the wrath of Florida’s superintendent of public instruction and would result in the passage of a state law prohibiting teaching blacks and whites under the same roof. Rather, the school began with enthusiastic community support and the expectation that its influence would reach throughout upper Florida and lower Georgia. The Orange Park school was founded by the American Missionary Association of New York, the most significant benevolent society then engaged in educating blacks. …

Ready Cash On Easy Terms: Local Responses To The Depression In Lee County, R. Lyn Rainard
Ready Cash On Easy Terms: Local Responses To The Depression In Lee County, R. Lyn Rainard
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the Great Depression spread to southwest Florida, it caught an unprepared population by surprise. In response, the people of Lee County united in an effort to use local public and private resources to alleviate want. Although moderately successful at first, community efforts alone could not surmount the hardship brought by the Depression. Only massive federal aid would accomplish that goal, bringing in its wake, however, other unforeseen results. New Deal programs did reduce economic trauma, but they also fundamentally altered attitudes about the causes of proverty and about the purpose of federal assistance. Ultimately, New Deal grants were used …
The Tony Tommie Letter, 1916: A Transitional Seminole Document, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
The Tony Tommie Letter, 1916: A Transitional Seminole Document, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
On October 4, 1916, a young Seminole boy named Tony Tommie wrote a letter to his friend Frank Stranahan, the trading post operator at Fort Lauderdale on the New River. Tony was sixteen years of age at the time, and had completed one year of instruction at the Fort Lauderdale elementary school. His brief note contained a plea for a $10.00 loan with which he could purchase a number of items, the most interesting of these being some “little alligator[s]” to be raised for re-sale to tourists. Unfortunately, there is no record of Stranahan’s response. However, given his long-standing friendship …
Development Of The Plan Of Pensacola During The Colonial Era, 1559-1821, Robert B. Lloyd, Jr.
Development Of The Plan Of Pensacola During The Colonial Era, 1559-1821, Robert B. Lloyd, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
The plan of present-day Pensacola reflects the influences of such colonial powers as Spain, France, and Great Britain. While all shared a common debt to ancient Roman practices of city design, each culture had its own idea of city planning that developed from its own particular history. The imposition of these ideas on Pensacola, and the accommodations that each culture had to make for the preceding one, led to an interesting and unique plan.

Reid V. Barry: The Legal Battle Over The "Best Location" In Orlando, Jane Quinn
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Florida Supreme Court case, Robert R. Reid et al. v. Bishop Patrick Barry, cleared the cloud of title of the Roman Catholic Church to its downtown Orlando property. The final decree in Circuit Court, Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, was announced in Orlando, on June 21, 1927. The judgment also established that in Florida a bishop is a corporation sole and that a deed of property to him and to his successors conveys ownership in the bishop’s corporate capacity. The bishop who was first involved in this lawsuit was John Moore of St. Augustine, who presided over the Catholic Diocese of …

Black Reaction To Segregation And Discrimination In Post-Reconstruction, Wali R. Kharif
Black Reaction To Segregation And Discrimination In Post-Reconstruction, Wali R. Kharif
Florida Historical Quarterly
Equality of protection under the laws, as guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, implies that in the administration of criminal justice no person, by reason of his race or color, shall be subjected for the same offense to any greater or different punishment than that to which persons of another race or color are subjected. It also suggests that all citizens are entitled to protection of their civil rights and against discriminatory practices based upon race, color, creed, or religion. Unfortunately, in October 1883 when the United States Supreme Court declared the Civil Rights Acts of …
