They say Southern Pine Beetle does not appear to be the culprit; instead an irony — fl oods caused drought BY DEBORAH BUCKHALTER dbuckhalter@jcfloridan.com A few weeks ago, Jackson County resident and landowner Andy Andreasen started notic- ing that some of his big, older pines — trees that had survived storms, droughts and more over their long lives — were dying. He put in a call to the Florida Forest Service for some ex- pert help to fi gure out why. He has about 40 acres in trees and wants to plant another 100 acres next year. Knowing that he’d be spending a good chunk of money to do that, he didn’t want to go ahead with that plan not knowing if there was a devastat- ing insect lying in wait for the juveniles. He hadn’t been the only tree- lover in the Panhandle to worry and to make that call. In fact, foresters had so many calls recently that the service put out a press release hoping PHOTOS BY KRISTIE CLOUD / FLORIDAN to calm their overall fears after Jeff Eickwort (above) of the Florida Forest Service points out a long-standing pine tree that has died on Andy Andreasen’s land in Marianna.

  • The First Florida Cavalry (Us): Union Enlistment in the Civil War’S
    THE FIRST FLORIDA CAVALRY (US): UNION ENLISTMENT IN THE CIVIL WAR’S SOUTHERN PERIPHERY by TYLER CAMPBELL B.A. University of Central Florida, 2014 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History in the College of Arts and Humanities at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Spring Term 2018 ABSTRACT In 1863, along the southern periphery of the American Civil War, a Union Brigadier General began recruiting Southern white men into a Union cavalry regiment known as the First Florida Cavalry (US). This study investigates the regiment and those who enlisted in it to show the fluidity of Southern loyalty during the Civil War and the conditions of the Deep South Homefront that existed on the periphery of Union occupation and continue to exist on the periphery of Civil War historiography. While scholars have recently addressed many aspects of Southern dissent in the Civil War, significantly less attention has been given to those who fought in the Union ranks. Utilizing previously unused archival materials paired with geospatial mapping, this study reveals the lives of Southerners who enlisted and their homeland. It examines both those who formed the regiment and those who enlisted in it. This analysis illuminates common soldier experience in the Sectional Conflict’s Southern borderland. This study concludes that the volatile nature of loyalty and the needs of the homefront in the Deep South encouraged both Union generals to form the First Florida Cavalry and Southerners to enlist in it. While this assessment analyzes only several hundred men, it provides insights into the larger populations of Southern Union soldiers throughout the Deep South and their competing loyalties to nation and community.

    Florida -CjvjlV&r- Heritage Trail .•""•^ ** V fc till -/foMyfa^^Jtwr^— A Florida Heritage Publication Florida . r li //AA Heritage Trail Fought from 1861 to 1865, the American Civil War was the country's bloodiest conflict. Over 3 million Americans fought in it, and more than 600,000 men, 2 percent of the American population, died in it. The war resulted in the abolition of slavery, ended the concept of state secession, and forever changed the nation. One of the 1 1 states to secede from the Union and join the Confederacy, Florida's role in this momentous struggle is often overlooked. While located far from the major theaters of the war, the state experienced considerable military activity. At one Florida battle alone, over 2,800 Confederate and Union soldiers became casualties. The state supplied some 1 5,000 men to the Confederate armies who fought in nearly all of the major battles or the war. Florida became a significant source of supplies for the Confederacy, providing large amounts of beef, pork, fish, sugar, molasses, and salt. Reflecting the divisive nature of the conflict, several thousand white and black Floridians also served in the Union army and navy. The Civil War brought considerable deprivation and tragedy to Florida. Many of her soldiers fought in distant states, and an estimated 5,000 died with many thousands more maimed and wounded. At home, the Union blockade and runaway inflation meant crippling scarcities of common household goods, clothing, and medicine. Although Florida families carried on with determination, significant portions of the populated areas of the state lay in ruins by the end of the war.

BOYD Hiistol-iaq Plw~da Board of Parks and Historic Nemorids Subsequent to the military operations about Pensacola in the first year of the Civil War, most of West Florida remained remote from the struggle. Its main contribution to the Confederacy was salt produced from numerous evaporating establishments along the coast, which were frequently demolished by raiding parties from vessels of the Federal blockading squadron. It was also an impor- tant source of agricultural produce. The scarcity of good agricultural lands and distance from markets had re-’ stricted plantation farming to limited areas of Jackson, Washington and Walton counties. Although sparsely inhabited, the widely separated communities contributed’ heavily to the man-power of the Southern armies. On the other hand, the very wildness of much of the region af-’ forded harborage both to deserters from the Confederate army and evaders of conscription, who, from their law- less conduct, occasioned much disorder, in which they were encouraged by Federal authorities in Fort Barran- cas on Pensacola Bay.

    Captain William McPherson – Commander of the Walton Guards By: H. C. “Hank” Klein © Copyright 2015, H. C. “Hank” Klein Prior to the formation of Okaloosa County out of what was Santa Rosa and Walton Counties on June 13, 1915, the area of Fort Walton Beach where the Indian Temple Mound is located was in Walton County. During the beginning of the Civil War the Walton Guards were formed to help with the war effort. In April 1861 the newly formed Walton Guards met at the Walton County seat of Euchee-Anna and selected their Commander – William McPherson, a 28-year-old local boy, to lead them in the Civil War against the Union Army of the United States. Just who was William McPherson and what qualified him to lead the men from his county; also what did the Walton Guards do to help the Confederate cause at the start of the War Between the States? We hope to answer those questions and more in this article about Walton County. n March 1, 1861, just 50 days after the 62 to 7 vote in favor of the state of Florida seceding from the Union on January 10, 1861, the women of the county seat of Walton County, O Florida, organized and marched around the small town of Euchee-Anna chanting, “Go boys, to your country’s call! I’d rather be a brave man’s widow than a coward’s wife.” That day, 60 brave men from Euchee-Anna and the surrounding area, at their womenfolk’s urging, joined what would be known as the Walton Guards.
