A Scouting Expedition Along Lake Panasoffkee, Frank F. White Jr.
A Scouting Expedition Along Lake Panasoffkee, Frank F. White Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
By the early spring of 1842 the Second Seminole War was drawing to its close. Since the noteworthy engagement at Lake Okeechobee on December 25, 1837, when the Indians had been defeated and had fled into inaccessible hiding-places, few pitched battles had been fought. Consequently, for several years the troops had engaged in a series of scouting expeditions which were designed to ferret out the numerous small bands of Indians and capture them.
Florida Politics In 1881: A Letter Of Henry S. Sanford, Edward C. Williamson
Florida Politics In 1881: A Letter Of Henry S. Sanford, Edward C. Williamson
Florida Historical Quarterly
General Henry S. Sanford was a member of the group of Northern business men who during Reconstruction in Florida shrewdly saw economic opportunity in what was then a poor undeveloped frontier state. But entirely different from the carpetbaggers, Sanford came to Florida in 1870 a wealthy man. Purchasing a large former Spanish land grant of 25,000 acres in the central part of the state from General Joseph Finegan for $18,200, he founded the city of Sanford, began construction of a railroad southward and planted extensive orange groves.
The Establishment Of Fort Brooke, James W. Covington
The Establishment Of Fort Brooke, James W. Covington
Florida Historical Quarterly
The military post known as Fort Brooke which was located at the mouth of the Hillsborough River is one that played a most important role in the settlement of Florida’s west coast. It served as a base of operations during the Seminole wars, and many famous military figures were stationed there during the middle third of the Nineteenth Century.
Relations With The Indians In West Florida, 1770-1781, George C. Osborn
Relations With The Indians In West Florida, 1770-1781, George C. Osborn
Florida Historical Quarterly
As governor of the English Province of West Florida, Peter Chester had many vexing problems to tax his executive abilities and his diplomatic skill. None was more difficult nor more intriguing than that of dealing with the Indians. Even before his arrival in the colony the Indians must have begun to realize that, regardless of which European imperialistic rival eventually won out in the struggle for supremacy in southeastern North America, they were the losers. Friendship proffered by the Spanish, and by the English after 1763 when the Treaty of Paris gave Florida to them and still later by the …

An Educator Looks At Florida In 1884, A Letter Of Ashley D. Hurt To His Wife, Samuel Proctor

He was educated at the University of Virginia, the University of Bonn, and received a Ph.D. degree from the University of Berlin. After serving in the Confederate Navy he became principal of the Louisville, Kentucky, high school.

Dr. Hurt died March 10, 1898. The original of the following letter was presented to the University …
De Soto And Terra Cei, John R. Swanton
De Soto And Terra Cei, John R. Swanton
Florida Historical Quarterly
In connection with my work as chairman of the De Soto Expedition Commission between 1935 and 1938 I made a study of the documentary and geographical evidence regarding the location of the point where De Soto landed on the Florida coast in 1539 and the position of his first headquarters. While I was assisted to some extent by other members of the Commission, the conclusions reached were more particularly mine and I assume all responsibility for them. They were originally stated in a paper printed in “The Florida Historical Quarterly” (vol. XVI, no. 3; Jan. 1938) and were incorporated later …
The Railroad Background Of The Florida Senatorial Election Of 1851, Arthur W. Thompson
The Railroad Background Of The Florida Senatorial Election Of 1851, Arthur W. Thompson
Florida Historical Quarterly
The national schism concerning the state of the Union following the Mexican War affected the character and intensity of political debate on the Florida scene no less than it did that of other areas throughout the nation. In Congress, Jefferson Davis and other eminent defenders of the Southern position gained the ardent support of Florida’s Democratic senior Senator, David L. Yulee. In his advocacy of the principle of the concurrent majority, as applied to the bicameral nature of the national legislature, Yulee was dealt a devastating blow by Webster and Clay. By late July of 1850, the proponents of the …
Richard K. Call Vs. The Federal Government On The Seminole War, Herbert J. Doherty Jr.
Richard K. Call Vs. The Federal Government On The Seminole War, Herbert J. Doherty Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the city of Washington in the autumn of 1836, the United States War Department was in a state of high confusion. On the sixth of October Lewis Cass had resigned as Secretary of War and the vacancy was temporarily filled by an under secretary, C. A. Harris. Within a few days the office was bestowed upon Benjamin F. ButIer, an interim appointee. These changes came during one of the crises of the Seminole War in Florida, which added to the confusion in Washington, In midsummer the command of that war had been vested in Governor Richard K. Call who …

Documents Describing The Second And Third Expeditions Of Lieutenant Diego Pena To Apalachee And Apalachicolo In 1717 And 1718, Mark F. Boyd
Documents Describing The Second And Third Expeditions Of Lieutenant Diego Pena To Apalachee And Apalachicolo In 1717 And 1718, Mark F. Boyd
Florida Historical Quarterly
The success attained by Lieutenant Diego Pena in the discharge of the mission to Apalachee and Apalachicolo, to which he was assigned in the summer of 1716, made him the logical choice for similar duties in the following two years. The authorities in St. Augustine entertained the hope of repopulating Apalachee through inducements offered to surviving Apalacheans then living along the Apalachicolo (present-day Chattahoochee) river and elsewhere, as well as members of adjacent and related tribes, whose disillusionment with the English had produced the then recent Yamassee war. Knowledge that the success of this project was imperiled by the English, …
