Material Relating To British East Florida In The Gage Papers And Other Manuscript, Charles L. Mowat
Material Relating To British East Florida In The Gage Papers And Other Manuscript, Charles L. Mowat
Florida Historical Quarterly
For the history of the short-lived British province of East Florida the main source is undoubtedly the papers in the Public Record Office in London, of which almost all of first importance are available in the form of transcripts or photostats in the Library of Congress. Aside from this, perhaps the best single collection of manuscript material is that in the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. The nucleus of the library is its collection of rare books dealing with America, mainly in the colonial and revolutionary periods, but it possesses also an important …
Why Two Connecticut Yankees Went South, Samuel H. Fisher
Why Two Connecticut Yankees Went South, Samuel H. Fisher
Florida Historical Quarterly
General Edmund Kirby Smith was an outstanding figure in the War between the States, particularly in its closing years when he was in command of the Trans-Mississippi Department. He was Florida-born and his native State was proud to place his statue in the Capitol at Washington.
The St. Augustine Census Of 1786, Joseph B. Lockey
The St. Augustine Census Of 1786, Joseph B. Lockey
Florida Historical Quarterly
St. Augustine was the chief center of population in colonial Florida. It was not however at any time a town of considerable size. Indeed, the whole white population of East and West Florida in the first Spanish period never exceeded a few thousand at most. The explanation is simple. There were greater attractions elsewhere. Unlike Mexico and the other mainland regions to the south, Florida had no mines to be exploited, no extensive fields already prepared for cultivation, and no Indian serfs to do the white man’s bidding. Nor did it possess the conditions of soil and climate which made …
James Alexander Robertson, A. Curtis Wilgus
James Alexander Robertson, A. Curtis Wilgus
Florida Historical Quarterly
Few scholars have had such an extensive general understanding of, or such an intensive interest in certain fields of history as had Dr. Robertson. The Philippines, Latin America, Florida, and Maryland all attracted his earnest, enthusiastic, and scholarly attention; and in each of those fields the results of his labors are outstanding. Though honors came to him from four continents, those who knew him best remember the man before the scholar.

Governor Johnstone In West Florida, C. N. Howard
Governor Johnstone In West Florida, C. N. Howard
Florida Historical Quarterly
The first letters and reports of Major Farmar upon the new province, West Florida, and the conduct of the military administration were received in the early spring by the secretary at war and, in due course, were forwarded to the new governor, George Johnstone, at his London house in Half- Moon street. The papers came from the secretary at war to the office of the secretary of state for the southern department. After inspection, they were returned to the secretary at war.

Colonial Land Claims In East And West Florida, Florida Historical Society
Colonial Land Claims In East And West Florida, Florida Historical Society
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Florida Historical Records Survey (Works Progress Administration) is engaged in translating, abstracting, and indexing the manuscripts relative to land claims in East and West Florida in the Field Note Division of the Department of Agriculture at Tallahassee. These manuscripts constitute the archives of the Boards of Commissioners for the settlement of claims based on English and Spanish land grants in the Floridas, which Boards sat at Pensacola from 1822 to 1825 and at St. Augustine from 1823 to 1826. Although certain portions of this material, chiefly of a legal nature, are summarized and published in American State Papers, Public …

Debrahm’S Report On East Florida, 1773, Carita Doggett Corse
Debrahm’S Report On East Florida, 1773, Carita Doggett Corse
Florida Historical Quarterly
The most detailed of the early reports on the Florida peninsula is that of John Gerard William DeBrahm, Surveyor General of the southern district of North America for George III of England. His observations on Florida are contained in a work entitled “History of the Three Provinces, South Carolina, Georgia and East Florida,” in manuscript in the British Museum, with a copy in Harvard University Library. The South Carolina and Georgia sections of this report have been printed but the Florida material is still only in manuscript. A great benefit would be conferred upon students of Colonial Florida if this …
The Relationship Of Florida Archaeology To That Of Middle America, Doris Stone
The Relationship Of Florida Archaeology To That Of Middle America, Doris Stone
Florida Historical Quarterly
Florida, as we all know, is a low coastal plain having as its principal element a limestone base, with its share of swamps and soft adhering mud which covers easily and in certain cases preserves. On the east and west coasts the environmental conditions differ from each other and from the peninsula itself, as well as from the entire southeastern area to which anthropologically it belongs, and from the rest of North America. On the western coast are the shell keys and coral reefs and not far distant on the eastern side, in addition to a few reefs, lie the …

The Military Occupation Of British West Florida, 1763, C. N. Howard
The Military Occupation Of British West Florida, 1763, C. N. Howard
Florida Historical Quarterly
The military occupation by the British troops of the former French and Spanish forts on the Gulf coast to the east of New Orleans was a movement of continental as well as of local importance. The twentieth article of the Treaty of Paris, 1763, had ceded to His Britannic Majesty all of the French territory to the east of the Mississippi river, except the port of New Orleans and the delta, and all of the Spanish territory of Florida, which extended westward to the Perdido river.
