Samuel A. Swann And The Development Of Florida, 1855-1900, Helen R. Sharp
Samuel A. Swann And The Development Of Florida, 1855-1900, Helen R. Sharp
Florida Historical Quarterly
The development of any community or geographic division is greatly influenced by those who promote its beginnings and further its growth. Among those who had confidence in the future of Florida was Samuel A. Swann, whose activities from 1855 to 1909 show that he was a valuable and conscientious supporter of the economic expansion of the state and of the city of Fernandina. His business interests were so varied and extensive in character that they present a cross-section of the development of Florida during the period in question, particularly in the opening of, public lands for settlement.
Spanish Fortifications Of Pensacola, 1698-1763, Stanley Faye
Spanish Fortifications Of Pensacola, 1698-1763, Stanley Faye
Florida Historical Quarterly
Spain knew toward the end of the seventeenth century that her enemy France soon would be colonizing the Mississippi valley. Wilderness guarded Mexico (New Spain) from an attack by any French soldiers who should garrison the future posts of Louisiana. In order that a hostile fleet might not sail against Spanish ports of the Gulf, Spain took steps to occupy the one still unoccupied Gulf port deep enough to serve as base for such a fleet. 1 So in April of 1693 a Mexican mathematician, Don Carlos de Siguenza y Gongora, led an official expedition into Pensacola bay to investigate …
St. Augustine Under The British Flag, 1763-1775, Charles L. Mowat
St. Augustine Under The British Flag, 1763-1775, Charles L. Mowat
Florida Historical Quarterly
The city of St. Augustine, in the serenity which comes from nearly four hundred years of existence, inevitably carries the visitor back to the days of the Spanish Empire. Its narrow streets, its low coquina houses with their balconies overhanging the roadway, its shady square running from the old Governor’s House down to the bay, and above all the massive yet graceful lines of the fort which should be called as of old Castillo de San Marcos, all bring back the spirit of the Old World to blend with that of the New into something of its original charm and …

The Confederate Baggage And Treasure Train Ends Its Flight In Florida: A Diary Of Tench Francis Tilghman
Florida Historical Quarterly
Editor’s note : The widespread interest aroused by A. J. Hanna’s latest publication FLIGHT INTO OBLIVION suggests that readers of the QUARTERLY will wish to read the diary of Tench Francis Tilghman on which a chapter of that book is based. In editing the diary Professcr Hanna* has used the mass of materials he assembled through years of research for his book to give us a picture of conditions in Florida in 1865. For this he has a noteworthy heritage, as each branch of his family came to Florida before the War, and two of his great-grandfathers were here before …
Florida’S First Constitution
Florida Historical Quarterly
The constitution of 1838-1839, formulated by representative delegates and adopted at the polls, represented the dominant will of the people of the Territory of Florida in emerging from a status of territorial dependence upon the Federal government into that of a sovereign State subject only to the Federal constitution.

Longfellow immortalized the banishment of the Arcadians, yet a voluntary expatriation equally as touching received only a brief notice in a Pensacola newspaper of 1857: The Exodus:-On Tuesday last thirty five free colored persons took their departure from this city for Tampico, and in a few days the balance who are still remaining will also leave. for the same place.

They take with them the sympathy of all our citizens on account of the causes which have …

Tequesta, The Journal Of The Historical Association Of Southern Florida, Florida Historical Society
Florida Historical Quarterly
The publication of the first number (March 1941) of this periodical is a noteworthy event in the writing of Florida’s history. Professor Lewis Leary of the University of Miami is its editor, and it is issued as a bulletin of the University. Its forthcoming appearance was noted in our last issue where its board of editors and plans of publication were mentioned. Nine articles with a column of Notes and Queries comprise this issue, and their interest and historical value call for a brief review of each.

Spanish Land Grants In Florida, Frank P. Hamilton
Spanish Land Grants In Florida, Frank P. Hamilton
Florida Historical Quarterly
Readers of the Florida Historical Quarterly are assumed to know the source of the present-day titles to the lands that make up our State. Some know more of the details of the devolutions involved than others and a few doubtless are learned in the subject. To the latter, progress toward such high estate of erudition has been tedious and oft-times discouraging. There have been few signboards along the way, but now more guide-posts have been placed for the learned and the novice.

James Holmes’S Florida Plantation, 1804, Lewis Leary
James Holmes’S Florida Plantation, 1804, Lewis Leary
Florida Historical Quarterly
Congressman James Mott was worried about his nephew. It was years since young James Holmes had left his family in Monmouth, New Jersey, to seek his fortune in Georgia. Finally, in January 1804, the congressman wrote Peter Freneau, also a Monmouth man, who had settled in the south, and had lived in Charleston since the close of the Revolution, and was now editing the influential City Gazette of that city.
The Return Of Spanish Rule To The St. Marys And The St. Johns, 1813-1821, D. C. Corbitt
The Return Of Spanish Rule To The St. Marys And The St. Johns, 1813-1821, D. C. Corbitt
Florida Historical Quarterly
If the United States Supreme Court had wanted a precedent for deciding the insular cases it might have found one in Spain’s treatment of the St. Marys-St. Johns district in 1813. When brought face to face with the question of applying the Spanish Constitution of 1812 to that area, Governor Sebastian Kindelan of East Florida, like the United States Supreme Court a century later, decided that the Constitution did not follow the flag. Higher authorities supported the governor in his decision, which, as will be shown below, was a result of the “Republic of Florida” episode of 1812-1813.
