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.

The St. Joseph Convention: The Making Of Florida’S First Constitution, F. W. Hoskins
Florida Historical Quarterly
After the convention had adjourned and most of the members had departed, one of the delegates remained over for a few days, and before leaving wrote the following letter to the editor of the St. Joseph Times. It was reprinted in the St. Augustine News of March 2. The writer’s identity will probably never be known, for he used a nom de plume, signing himself “Ruminator”. He wrote as follows.
The Reception. Of The St. Joseph Constitution, Emily Porter
The Reception. Of The St. Joseph Constitution, Emily Porter
Florida Historical Quarterly
When Florida framed her first constitution the principle of submitting constitutions to the people had been generally established. By January 11, 1839 the St. Joseph convention was ready to submit the fruit of its labors to the people for their approval or rejection. The date set for voting on the question was the first Monday in May 1839, coincident with electing a delegate to Congress.
St. Joseph, An Episode Of The Economic And Political History Of Florida, James O. Knauss
St. Joseph, An Episode Of The Economic And Political History Of Florida, James O. Knauss
Florida Historical Quarterly
No subject within the wide range of Florida’s history has stirred a greater interest than St. Joseph. Because of its quick rise to importance, its still more rapid decline, and the double tragedy of its extinction, an aspect of romance has settled upon the dead town, heightened through tradition and a haze of unreality engendered by the lack of definite records of its life. Dr. Knauss, searching out and bringing together these scanty records, gives us a light, for the first time, to penetrate that mist. - Ed .

Transportation In Territorial Florida, Alice Whitman
Transportation In Territorial Florida, Alice Whitman
Florida Historical Quarterly
FOREWORD. Two years ago Florida State College for Women was the recipient of an annual prize of fifty dollars offered by Mr. D. H. Redfearn of Miami for the winning essay on a selected topic in Florida History. The topic for this essay is selected by Mr. Redfearn with the consultation and advice of the Department of History of the College. Qualifications for the competition are broadly drawn because it is not the desire of the donor nor the department to limit it only to those who are specializing in history. Students are required to have had merely sufficient history …
A Map Of, The Road From Pensacola To St. Augustine, 1778 (With Nine Plates), Mark F. Boyd
A Map Of, The Road From Pensacola To St. Augustine, 1778 (With Nine Plates), Mark F. Boyd
Florida Historical Quarterly
The attention of students of Florida history is called to the Stuart-Purcell map of the road from Pensacola to St. Augustine, which was brought to the writer’s notice by Dr. John R. Swanton. Considered both from the standpoint of the representation of topography, as well as the descriptive legend, it is the outstanding available account of the interior of western and much of northern Florida in the British colonial period.

George Woodbine in that region. As an introduction to this series there appeared in the October, 1937, issue of the Quarterly a paper by Mark F. Boyd entitled Events at Prospect Bluff on the Apalachicola River, 1808-1818.

The St. Joseph Convention Iii: The Making Of Florida’S First Constitution, F. W. Hoskins
Florida Historical Quarterly
At last the work of the convention drew to a close. The differences that arose as the various articles of the constitution were reported by each committee were finally adjusted and the proposed constitution was ready to be submitted to the house. Nearly six weeks had passed since the convention had assembled. Many acquaintances had been made, friendships formed, and associations enjoyed, and now this was the last day. The convention would pass into history, and many were never to meet again. We cannot do better than quote from the journal.
