ANSWER: It was the beginning of a safe southern frontier for the British The conflict between the Spanish and English over the land between South Carolina and Florida lasted for nearly 20 years, but once formal hostilities began in 1739—only six years after Georgia's founding—the survival of the colony hung in the balance.

  • Black-Indian Interaction in Spanish Florida
    DOCUMEPT RESUME ED 320 845 SO 030 009 AUTHOR Landers, Jane TITLE Black/Indian Interaction in SpanishFlorida. PUB DATE 24 Mar 90 NOTE 25p.; Paper presented at the AnnualMeeting of the Organization of American Historians(Washington, DC, March 24, 1990). PUB TYPE Speeches/Conference Papers (150) --Historical Materials (060) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *American Indian History; *Black History; *Colonial History (United States); Higher Education; *Indigenous Populations; Secondary Education; *Slavery; State History IDENTIFIERS *Florida ABSTRACT The history of the lives of non-white peoples in the United States largely has been neglected although the Spanish bureaucrats kept meticulous records of the Spanish Mission period in Florida. These records represent an important source for the cultural history of these groups and offer new perspectives on the tri-racial nature of frontier society. Africans as well as Indians played significant roles in Spain's settlement of the Americas. On arrival in Florida the Africans ran away from the," captors to Indian villages. The Spanish, perceiving an alliance of non-white groups, sought to separate them, and passed special legislation forbidding living or trading between the two groups. There were continuous episodes of violence by the Indians who resisted Spanish labor and tribute demands, efforts to convert them, and changes in their social practices. Villages were reduced to mission sites where they could more readily supply the Spaniards with food and labor. Indian and black surrogates were used to fight the English and helped build the massive stone fort at St. Augustine. The end of the Spanish Mission system came with the war of 1700, English forces from the Carolinas raided mission sites killing thousands of Indians and taking many into slavery.

  • Upland Invasive Exotic Plant Control Program Fiscal Year 2016-2017 Summary
    Upland Invasive Exotic Plant Control Program Fiscal Year 2016-2017 Summary Over one-and-one-half million acres of Florida’s public conservation land have been invaded by alien (exotic, nonnative, nonindigenous) plants such as melaleuca, Brazilian pepper, cogon grass, and climbing ferns. However, invasive alien plants respect no boundaries and millions of acres of agricultural and private land are also been affected. Florida’s nearly 11 million acres of public conservation land support a nature-based tourism economy valued at $10 billion annually (total tourism spending in 2015 equaled $89 billion). The Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission’s Invasive Plant Management Section (IPMS) is the designated lead entity in Florida responsible for coordinating and funding the statewide control of invasive aquatic and upland plants in public waterways and on public conservation land. The Upland Invasive Exotic Plant Management Program (a subsection of IPMS) was established in 1997 to address the need for a statewide coordinated approach to the terrestrial (vs. aquatic) invasive exotic plant problem. The “Uplands Program” incorporates place-based management concepts, bringing together regionally diverse interests to develop flexible, innovative strategies to address weed management issues at the local level. The program funds individual exotic plant removal projects statewide on public conservation land. Projects are considered for funding based upon recommendations from eleven Regional Invasive Plant Working Groups. The mission of the Uplands Program is to achieve maintenance control of invasive exotic plants like cogon grass (Imperata cylindrica), melaleuca (Melaleuca quinquenervia), Brazilian pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius), Old World climbing fern (Lygodium microphyllum), and Japanese climbing fern (L. japonicum) on public conservation land.

  • A Chronology of Spanish Florida 1513 to 1821
    Conquistadores in the Land of Flowers: A Chronology of Spanish Florida 1513 to 1821 Compiled by Paul Eugen Camp Special Collections Department University of South Florida Library Tampa 2001 The First Spanish Period, 1513-1763 To a late sixteenth century Spaniard, “Florida” was a vast land stretching as far north as Chesapeake Bay and west to a point beyond the Mississippi. In the first half of the 1500's, Spain launched a series of expeditions to explore and colonize Florida. Although these expeditions brought back geographic knowledge, they were costly in blood and treasure, and failed to achieve a permanent Spanish settlement. The establishment of St. Augustine in 1565 marked the true beginning of Spain’s Florida colony. The remainder of the century saw the establishment of further settlements and the beginning of the mission system. During the seventeenth century, Spanish Florida prospered moderately, with an extensive system of Franciscan missions stretching from northern Georgia to the Florida panhandle, and large cattle ranchos operating in the Tallahassee and Alachua areas. At the beginning of the eighteenth century, war with England destroyed the missions and ranchos, and with them any hope of Florida becoming more than an isolated military frontier. By the time Spain turned Florida over to the British in 1763, Spanish control was limited to little more than St. Augustine, Pensacola and a few other outposts. 1510 Unrecorded Spanish expeditions searching for indian slaves probably reached the Florida coast as early as 1510, possibly even earlier. In 1565, the Spanish Council of the Indies claimed that Spanish ships had “gone to occupy” Florida ever since 1510.
