    Richard Fitzpatrick's South Florida, 1822-1840 Part II: Fitzpatrick's Miami River Plantation By Hugo L. Black III* During the 1820's, most of the land in southeast Florida was owned by the government. By 1825, only six private claims from the Spanish period had been validated: the Polly Lewis, Jonathan Lewis, and Rebecca Hagan (Egan) Donations on the South side of the Miami River, the James Hagan (Egan) Donation on the North side of the Miami River, the Mary Ann Davis Donation on Key Biscayne, and the Frankee Lewis Donation on the New River.1 Notwithstanding the lack of settlement, even during this period, southeast Florida's suitability for plantations was recognized. James Egan emphasized this suitability in the following advertisement run on numerous occasions in the Key West Register during 1829, in which he offered his land on the Miami River for Sale: For Sale A Valuable Tract of LAND Near Cape Florida Situated on the Miami River. The Land is very good and will produce Sugar Cane and Sea Island Cotton, equal if not superior to any other part of the *Hugo Black, III, is a resident of Miami, a former state legislator, a graduate of Yale, and presently attending law school at Stanford University.

  • Sailboat Bend Historic District Architectural Resource Survey
    VI. HISTORIC CONTEXT AND STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Historic Context Guidelines provided by the National Park Service within National Register Bulletin 16A provides a definition: Historic context is information about historic trends and properties grouped by an important theme in pre-history or history of a community, state, or the nation during a particular period of time. Because historic contexts are organized by theme, place, and time, they link historic properties to important historic trends. In this way, they provide a framework for determining the significance of a property. Built resources are connected to the historic context by their shared physical or associative characteristics. According to National Register Bulletin 15, in order to decide whether a property is significant within its historic context, the following must be determined: • That facet of prehistory or history of the local area, State, or the nation that the property represents. • Whether that facet of prehistory or history is significant. • Whether it is a type of property that has relevance and importance in illustrating the historic context. • How the property illustrates that history. • Whether the property possesses the physical features necessary to convey the aspect of prehistory or history with which it is associated. Within the original designation of the SBHD (1991), the following trends and patterns were noted: • That the structures built prior to 1940 were the most significant to the district as their numbers have vastly declined and they represent the City’s earliest pioneering families. • That if a structure was built in the decades after the Period of Significance (specifically the 1940s and 1950s); and had the appearance of the earlier period of significance, it could be considered significant (i.e.

  • Fort Dallas and the Naval Depot on Key Biscayne, 1836 -1926 by NATHAN D
    Fort Dallas and the Naval Depot on Key Biscayne, 1836 -1926 By NATHAN D. SHAPPEE EARLY WRITINGS ON FORT DALLAS When Dr. Walter S. Graham began publication of the Miami Metropolis in April, 1896, he planned to publish occasionally articles on local history. The first of these appeared in the issue of November 20, 1896 and was a sketch of Fort Dallas. Earlier in the year Dr. Graham had written to the War Department requesting data on the local monument of the Seminole War. He was informed that another person had already asked for data on Fort Dallas. This person proved to be Mrs. Julia D. Tuttle who owned Fort Dallas and desired information about her property. Dr. Graham then approached Mrs. Tuttle for permission to receive the War Department's account and to publish it in the Metropolis. The published article consisted of the department's article in full and as it was written. To this Graham added data which he had collected as additional local highlights on the topic. In his earlier capacity as a land buyer and title searcher for Henry M. Flagler and his East Coast Railroad, he had collected interesting and personal memoirs on Fort Dallas. The first article, however, had been compiled from records in the Adjutant General's Office and, because of this, related almost exclusively only the Army's role in this protracted conflict. The compiler did not consult the records of other services of the government which, as it has turned out, had large amounts of data on Fort Dallas and the events of the Seminole War in the Miami area.1 Actually it was the Navy which appeared first on Biscayne Bay in 1836 to establish patrols of the coast and to set up a post or fort.

  • Fort Lauderdale and the Second Seminole War
    Fort Lauderdale and the Second Seminole War By the late eighteenth century, the aboriginal peoples of South Florida had disappeared and the Seminoles, originally Creek Indians from Georgia and Alabama, migrated to the area, adapting to a new lifestyle in the Everglades. At the same time, new white settlers (some with slaves of African descent) came to the area from the Bahamas and the newly formed United States. In 1821, Florida became a U.S. territory; the Indian Removal Act of 1830 mandated the removal of all Native Americans east of the Mississippi to Indian Territory (Oklahoma). The Seminoles chose to resist rather than be removed; this resulted in the Second (1835-1842) and Third (1855-1858) Seminole Wars. The modern Indians of the Seminole Tribe of Florida and the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida are the descendants of the approximately 200 Seminoles who remained in Florida at the end of these wars. The Ives Map of 1856 of “Florida South of Tampa Bay” documented not only the geography of the region but the recent military fortifications, routes, and battles as well.
