Community theater--United States Theater--United States Description Trish Thompson, Vice President and former President of Creative Sanford, Inc., in October 2013. Creative Sanford is a non-profit organization created to manage Celery Soup community theater productions. The original idea for the Celery Soup: Florida’s Folk Life Play project came from Jeanine Taylor, the owner of a folk-art gallery on First Street in Sanford, Florida. Their first production was Touch and Go, a play focusing on the people of Sanford and their determination to overcome various obstacles, including the Freeze of 1894-1895, the fall of Sanford's celery industry, and the closing of Naval Air Station (NAS) Sanford in the 1960s. Richard Geer and Jules Corriere, partners from Community Performance International, were in charge of assessing oral histories, converting them into scenes for the play, and writing original songs. Director Geer also used an all-volunteer cast from the local community, many of whom were not experienced actors. In the process of producing the show, Creative Sanford decided to rehabilitate an historic building, the Princess Theater, which is located on 115 West First Street and owned by Stephen Tibstra. The Creative Sanford offices are housed in the Historic Sanford Welcome Center, located at 203 East First Street.

Doctors Physicians--Florida Senior citizens Awards--United States Description This newspaper clipping concerns the awarding of the Chase Senior Citizen Award to Dr. George H. Starke (1898-1978). The precise newspaper is unknown, but it is presumed to be The Sanford Herald. The year the award was given is believed to be 1974. Dr. Starke was a practicing medical doctor who opened his practice in Sanford, Florida, on September 15, 1927. Shortly thereafter, Dr. Starke became one of only four African-American physicians to be accepted by Harvard University for residency at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. He practiced for several years in Boston and then returned to Sanford in 1933 and continued to practice medicine until his death at age 80. For many years, Dr. Starke was the only African-American doctor in Sanford. Dr. Starke was also the first African-American doctor to acquire membership in the Florida Medical Association and the Seminole County Medical Association, as well as the second to join the American Medical Association. In 1971, the City of Sanford named George Starke Park, located at 1501 West Third Street, in his honor.

Lee wrote about this keepsake for which she had placed in her Love Cedar Chest, also known as a Hope Chest. While attending high school in 1940, Lee's parents gave her a hope chest, along with a bedspread crocheted by her mother. Also included inside was a rolling pin that her father, a member of the American Legion, had made from one of the wooden spokes from the wheel of a World War I-era cannon. The cannon was placed in front of American Legion Campbell-Lossing Post 53, located at 300 Seminole Boulevard, on January 17, 1936, but was dismantled for scrap metal during World War II. Lee married her husband James after the war on September 11, 1946. After her wedding, she began using the rolling pin.

Title Historic Lakefront Building to Be Demolished: Deteriorated Log Cabin is Too Dangerous to Save Alternative Title Historic Lakefront Building to Be Demolished Subject Sanford (Fla.) Buildings--Florida American Legion Veterans of Foreign Wars (U.S.) Demolition Description This is a newspaper article describing the planned demolition of the an historic log cabin-style building located at 300 Seminole Boulevard in Sanford, Florida. The log cabin was originally used as the American Legion Campbell-Lossing Post 53, which received the property from the City of Sanford during the Armistice Day celebrations on November 11, 1924. Mayor Forrest Lake dedicated the structure to the "future generations who would be better off because of the work of the American Legion." The cabin was constructed through private donations from local citizens and businesses, such as the Hill Lumber Company. A cannon from World War I was placed in front of the building on January 17, 1936, but the cannon was dismantled for scrap metal during World War II. The Sanford Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States acquired the building in 1973 and the American Legion moved to 3506 South Orlando Drive and later to 2874 South Sanford Avenue. Due to deterioration and poor conditions, inspector Gary Winn recommended demolition, which was approved by City Manager Bill Simmons. The American Legion is a social veterans' organization for former and current members of the United States Armed Forces. The organization was chartered by the United States Congress on September 16, 1919, following World War I. The American Legion has been active in influencing political and social change, such as the founding of the U.S. Veterans Bureau, which was the forerunner of the Veterans Administration and later the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA); efforts to pass a constitutional amendment prohibiting the physical desecration of the American flag; the creation of the American Legion Baseball program; the passing of the Servicemen's Readjustment Act, commonly known as the GI Bill of Rights; contributing to the launch of the National Association for Mental Health; sponsorship of an independent study on the effects of the exposure of Agent Orange, a herbicidal weapon, on veterans of the Vietnam War; as well as many other activities and achievements.

Buildings--Florida American Legion Description The American Legion Hall, located at the 300 Seminole Boulevard in Sanford, Florida during the 1920s. The log cabin was originally used as the American Legion Campbell-Lossing Post 53, which received the property from the City of Sanford during the Armistice Day celebrations on November 11, 1924. Mayor Forrest Lake dedicated the structure to the "future generations who would be better off because of the work of the American Legion." The cabin was constructed through private donations from local citizens and businesses, such as the Hill Lumber Company. A cannon from World War I was placed in front of the building on January 17, 1936, but the cannon was dismantled for scrap metal during World War II. The Sanford Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States acquired the building in 1973 and the American Legion moved to 3506 South Orlando Drive and later to 2874 South Sanford Avenue. Due to deterioration and poor conditions, inspector Gary Winn recommended demolition, which City Manager Bill Simmons approved. The American Legion is a social veterans' organization for former and current members of the United States Armed Forces. The organization was chartered by the United States Congress on September 16, 1919, following World War I. The American Legion has been active in influencing political and social change, such as the founding of the U.S. Veterans Bureau, which was the forerunner of the Veterans Administration and later the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA); efforts to pass a constitutional amendment prohibiting the physical desecration of the American flag; the creation of the American Legion Baseball program; the passing of the Servicemen's Readjustment Act, commonly known as the GI Bill of Rights; contributing to the launch of the National Association for Mental Health; sponsorship of an independent study on the effects of the exposure of Agent Orange, a herbicidal weapon, on veterans of the Vietnam War; as well as many other activities and achievements.

Title Charles Ernest Gormley Playing the Clarinet During World War I Alternative Title WWI Soldier with Clarinet Subject World War I, 1914-1918 Veterans--Florida Clarinetists Description Charles Ernest Gormley, an American soldier, playing the clarinet during World War I. Gormley was originally from Kansas, but he moved to Sanford, Florida, with his family shortly before WWI. Gormley served alongside his brother, George Gormley, in France from August 13, 1917, to April 14, 1919. His daughter, Luticia "Tish" Gormley Lee, was the contributor of this photograph. Before entering World War I, the United States maintained a policy of neutrality, although the U.S. continued to supply the Allies: Great Britan, France, and Russia. The U.S. officially entered the war on April 6, 1917, in response to Germany's return to all-out submarine warfare on all commercial ships sailing for Great Britain and Germany's offer for military alliance to Mexico via the Zimmerman Telegram. The U.S. mobilized over four million military personnel through the course of American involvement in the war and lost 110,000 casualties. The U.S. vastly expanded its government and dramatically increase the size of its military during World War I.

Title George Gormley Playing the Clarinet During World War I Alternative Title WWI Soldier with Clarinet Subject World War I, 1914-1918 Clarinetists Veterans--Florida Description George Gormley, an American soldier, playing the clarinet during World War I. Gormley was originally from Kansas, but he moved to Sanford, Florida, with his family shortly before WWI. Gormley served alongside his brother, Charles Ernest Gormley, in France from August 13, 1917 to April 14, 1919. His niece, Luticia "Tish" Gormley Lee, was the contributor of this photograph. Before entering World War I, the United States maintained a policy of neutrality, although the U.S. continued to supply the Allies: Great Britan, France, and Russia. The U.S. officially entered the war on April 6, 1917, in response to Germany's return to all-out submarine warfare on all commercial ships sailing for Great Britain and Germany's offer for military alliance to Mexico via the Zimmerman Telegram. The U.S. mobilized over four million military personnel through the course of American involvement in the war and lost 110,000 casualties. The U.S. vastly expanded its government and dramatically increase the size of its military during World War I.

Nansemond Postcard Subject World War I, 1914-1918 Description A postcard showing United States Ship (USS) Nansemond (ID-1395), most likely around March 1919. Originally called Steamship (SS) Pennsylvania, this steamship was built by Hartland & Wolff in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 1896 for the Hamburg-American Line. In 1917, the ship was seized by the United States Shipping Board (USSB). During World War I, Nansemond served in the Army Cargo and Transport Service until it was transferred to the U.S. Navy. On January 20, 1919, the steamship was commissioned in Hoboken, New Jersey, under Commander W. MacLeod of the U.S. Navy Reserve (USNR). USS Nansemond was assigned to the Naval Overseas Transportation Service (NOTS) and departed from New York on February 4, 1919. Carrying supplies for the U.S. Army, the ship arrived at Saint-Nazaire, France, on February 16 and then departed for Virginia on February 26. Carrying returning soldiers of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF), Nansemond arrived at Newport News on March 11, 1919. In August, the steamship returned to New York to be decommissioned on August 25. USS Nansemond was returned to the USSB and then scrapped in 1924.

As of November 2013, the cooker was in the possession of Luticia "Tish" Gormley Lee, who planned to will it to her daughter, Linda Lee Mallaskaski. The fireless cooker was originally owned by Lee's aunt, Mardy Lee, who arrived in Sanford, Florida, in 1910. Mardy would cook stones with a wood stove and then put the stones in the fireless cooker. She would then heat food in the pans and leave it in the fireless cooker overnight so that it would be ready to serve after church on Sundays. Fireless cookers are also known as hay boxes, straw boxes, insulation cookers, wonder ovens, and retained-heat cookers.

B. 348 ribbon owned by Jesse Street Roberts, the great aunt of the contributor of this item, Luticia "Tish" Gormley Lee. Roberts migrated to Sanford, Florida, from Wilmington, North Carolina, sometime around 1910. Following the American Civil War, numerous associations were founded by women to organize the burials, funerals, commemorations, and monuments honoring the Confederacy. The majority of these individual associations were merged into the National Association of the Daughters of the Confederacy, led by Caroline Meriwether Goodlett and Anna Davenport Raines, on September 10, 1894 in Nashville, Tennessee, for daughters, granddaughters, and other female descendants of Confederate servicemen. In 1895, a meeting was held in Atlanta, Georgia, to change the name of the organization to the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC). The UDC was officially incorporated in Washington, D.C., on July 18, 1919. Roberts was presumably a member of the Daughters of the Confederacy, though it is not clear if this particular chapter was integrated into the UDC.

High schools--Florida Schools Students--Florida Class reunions--United States Description A handwritten note listed the graduates of the Sanford High School Class of 1913 that attended the 50 Year Class Reunion held in June 1963. The graduates included: Albert Pattishall, lawyer and judge; Lenney Dean, minister; Wallace Crosby, engineer; Konner, doctor; Eleanor Gormley Roberts; Margaret Davis; and Selma Baker. The note was likely written by Luticia "Tish" Gormley Lee. Sanford High School was originally established at 301 West Seventh Street in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Uh, we are at the [UCF] Public History Center in Sanford, Florida. It is Saturday, November 16th, 2013. Do you just want to introduce yourself for the camera? Ford I’m Nancy Ford, and, um—actually, I’m Nancy Harris Ford. My maiden name is Harris. I grew up here in Sanford and left. Was gone about 36 years and came back. Fedorka Okay, and when did you leave Sanford? Ford I left Sanford in 1973, about a year after I graduated from Seminole High School. Fedorka Okay, and what brought you back to Sanford? Ford Uh, a combination of things. One is home. And, in 2008, when the economy did what it did, I found myself unemployed, and I needed to make some choices. So I chose to come home, where I had a support system. Fedorka Okay, um, now did you have any interest in Sanford’s history before getting involved with Celery Soup and Creative Sanford[, Inc.]? Ford Not really, because I am Sanford’s history. [laughs] You know, a lot of the things they do in Creative Sanford[, Inc.] in the shows that they write, I remember. So I’m not just learning them. I am learning new facts about these things, But a lot of these stories, they’re my stories—some of them. And I remember these things. Fedorka Right so… Ford It’s interesting that what you call “history,” I call “my life.” Fedorka Right. Of course. Yeah. Okay. So what got you interested in Creative Sanford? Ford Well, when I came back, my sister—my sisters knew that I was interested in acting and performing, because I had done it when I was in Memphis[, Tennessee]. And she saw an advertisement for the show—for Touch and Go—and asked me if I would like to go. And so we went to see it, and I thought it was so interesting, so I said, “Well I think I’ll audition the next time around.” So the next time around, I auditioned and I really enjoyed it, so I’ve auditioned every time since. Fedorka Okay, great. Um, so you play a number of different characters in Remade - Not Bought. Do you want to go through some of the different characters? Ford [laughs] It was interesting. I played, um, Tasha in the continuity scene—is who’s the mother of one of the young ladies. And that role—the continuity scenes were designed to link the stories together so that they made sense. And, um, I also played Tasha’s mother in one of the scenes, remembering when the, uh, I guess the Woolworth’s counter, one of those restaurants which I actually remember when we used to go to the back window to get the food at the restaurants. We couldn’t go in and sit down. I remember that. So I played that character. And then I played Dr. Starke’s in another scene. And, uh, the Tasha character just kind of weaves through most of the show. Fedorka So it’s interesting that you said a lot of these things have been touched on your own personal life that you experienced. What role do you think community theater plays and community understanding on history in remembering history? Ford Well, I think that it’s really important, because, if we don’t remember our past, especially the things that aren’t very pleasant, then we’re doomed to repeat it. Now, I have a son who’s 20, and we would get tired of me telling him sometimes that, when he wanted these shoes and these clothes that cost so much money, and I would tell him, “Well, you know, when I was growing up, my mama bought our clothes and hoped they’re fit. And most of the time, bought them too large, because we couldn’t try them on and she couldn’t take them back. Because we were colored.” So, you know, especially for European Americans, we know a lot of your history, because we were exposed to it on commercials and television and stuff like that. But our history was kind of downplayed. And even among ourselves, we don’t realize sometimes the richness. When I say “ourselves” —the African-American community. Sometimes we don’t understand or really, fully realize the richness of our history. And the importance that certain things play. It was just kinda the way we lived. Fedorka Right, and—so some of these scenes are dealing with some of the, um, more troubling or challenging aspects of Sanford’s history. Um, in what ways, um—let me think how to phrase it. And, does it—does it change the memory of these experiences at all in some of these scenes? Ford It—it doesn’t change the memory. It changes the meaning. Uh, for example, the butterfly scene. I remember school integration. So when I’m going through that, I remember. And people say that I play that scene and I seem so—it seems so real, because I really was angry about school integration. [clears throat] Although, for me, it was the opposite. It was me going to the “white” school, so to speak, not the other way around, as it was in the butterfly scene. But I didn’t want to be there. I had no choice. I got thrown into an environment that I feel changed my life in a way that was not for the best. When I was at Crooms [High School], I was a—an honors student. I was in the National Honors Society. I was on track to be Val of Sal. And when I went to Seminole [High School], I did not get the same attention that I got at Crooms. Because the curriculum was so different, and the books were so different, because we got hand me down books at Crooms. Things were so different that I was not academically prepared. And even though I did well, I was in and out of the Honors Society at Seminole. And I didn’t go to college. And I found out later about the, uh, work-studies. And I wasn’t counseled, so I didn’t know. I didn’t know what was available to me, and I didn’t graduate college until I was 50. And I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that I got shoved into an environment where I wasn’t welcomed. I didn’t’ feel welcomed. Fedorka It seemed that watching Remade - Not Bought, there’s a very specific choice of scenes. The types of topics that we’re touched on. I think of this really cool scene, I think of the butterfly scene, which is obviously one of the main highlights of the show. Um, the one of the restaurant that you just explained. What was the decision-making process, which scenes to highlight? Ford Well, I wasn’t really involved in that, so—I wasn’t involved in choosing which scenes went into the play. You have to talk to the playwrights about that. Fedorka Right. Okay. Uh, do you feel like there’s any—obviously, I mean, there’s—some of these scenes are kind of arbitrary in the way that—in the topics that they—in the—obviously the big comment that they’re trying to reconcile is Sanford’s history of racial tensions. And they’ve picked little snapshots to touch on. Do you think there’s any that would have been more effective to include? Ford Well, I don’t know about effective, because I think they scenes they included were very effective. Um, there’s so many from which to choose. And I think that the ones that they chose show different aspects of the racial tension, like the pool scene. I don’t know how to swim. I never learned. Uh, there were two pools in Sanford. The white pool, we weren’t allowed to go to. The black pool was always so crowded when it was open that you couldn’t swim in there if you tried. And the beach? Well, there were no lifeguards at the beach we were allowed to go. We’d go to New Smyrna Beach. And our parents were afraid to put us in the water because they both, you know, fearful for our safety. And every summer, kids drowned. Every summer. So our parents were very fearful of that. So those kinds of things, you know, were really meaningful. There’s, um, the only thing—and I have spoken to them about this—it seems that in every one of these plays, I play the angry black woman [laughs]. Um, but we had some good times in the African-American community as well. And sometimes I’d like to see that highlighted. You know, like we had pic—church picnics, and things like that. And because they highlight some things that have nothing to do with racial tension with the white characters. But almost all the scenes that involve African Americans have some type of racial overtone. Even the Starke scene. Even though it wasn’t, you know, an uncomfortable thing, but even that had racial overtones and, you know, it’s—there were other things that we did [laughs], you know, that had nothing to do with race—that had nothing to do with white people either. But, you know, a lot of the scenes they have with whites have nothing to do with black people. Fedorka Right. What—do you see what Creative Sanford does—what Celery Soup does especially—with plays like Remade - Not Bought—do you see what they’re doing as history or is it something different? Ford It’s both. It’s history with creative license, because it’s entertainment. And I think it’s a good way to get a conversation going. Because when people go and they see these shows, then invariably, even participating, I learned things, and I go out and do research. Like, Dr. Starke was my doctor. Dr. Starke brought me into the world, you know, when I was born. He was the doctor who brought me here. He was my doctor growing up. But there were things that I didn’t know about him, because, you know, why would I want to go study about Dr. Starke? But now in retrospect, I went out on the Internet and did research, because I do want to know. You know, so there are—and almost everybody that I speak with, after they’ve seen the show, they say “I didn’t know this” or “I didn’t know that.” So yeah, it’s a good way to get a conversation started. Fedorka And it’s interesting that you mention Dr. Starke, because he is featured predominantly throughout the play. Um, in what ways do you think he was a good choice to highlight as a central example of some of the message we get across? Ford Well, one thing is that he was biracial, you know? And uh, and that’s one way—one of the reasons that he was able to do some of the things that he did, because he was fair. His skin was fair, his hair was wavy. But he was a very quiet man—a soft-spoken man. But, like they say in the play, he was a good man. And I remember going to him, up to my teenage years, you know—until I left here, he was my doctor—[laughs] I don’t ever remember paying him. I imagine my mother paid him. I don’t know whether she paid him or not. But it never occurred to me that he wasn’t getting paid. That’s not something that kids think about. You know, and I know that I went to him once for something and he said, “Well tell Bernice such and such and such.” that was my mom’s name. So he knew his patients. It’s not like now. You go to the doctor and they review your chart to remember who you are. You know, they make notes in their charts so that they can have conversation with you. But if I walked into his office, he knew me. He knew my name. He knew my mother’s name. He knew my grandparents. It was very different. And I didn’t realize—well, I didn’t think about the fact that he saw white people too. You know, I don’t ever remember seeing white people in his office. I imagine they were there, but you know, that wasn’t something that I thought about, because if he saw white people it was, because they couldn’t afford to pay the white doctor. And that was not uncommon in the black community, because we didn’t carry around a lot of the baggage it seems that a lot of the white people did. Fedorka What are some of the memories you have of Dr. Starke of your childhood? Ford Well, I remember one time that, uh—I didn’t like shots. I was actually very afraid of shots and I needed to get a shot. And there was a booster shot in the buttocks, and Dr. Starke had me stand at the window and look out the window, and he was talking to me. I don’t remember what he was talking to me about. I also don’t remember getting the shot. Just—it was just so much like the scene in the play. And when I saw that, I was like, “You know, he really was like that.” That was not an exaggeration. Fedorka What role do you think the play has in linking the memory of Sanford and Sanford in the 20th century to people like Dr. Starke? Ford Well, I think especially for a lot of the kids, it helps—helps you to know your history. History is important. Even though I didn’t realize it when I was young, because I did not like history in school. Didn’t like it at all. And now, I’m more interested in it, because I can see how—what they call progress. You know, the continuity of events and how it progressed from here to here and the next step. You know, um, Sanford was known as “The Celery City.” Well, I could remember what that smells like. Interestingly enough, because my gather ran a celery crew. So I used to play on the bus—on his bus. and it is a very distinct smell. And I remember what it smells like. And I also remember what it smelled like when those celery fills were rotting, cause, you know, Celery Avenue is named Celery Avenue for a reason. There weren’t houses down there when I was growing up. Those were celery fields. And so people don’t know why that street is named Celery Avenue. And there’s Celery Key and there’s Celery something else, but those are housing developments now. But they used to be celery fields. Fedorka And to bring you back to Dr. Starke. Dr. Starke’s office was near Celery Avenue. Ford Well, it’s on the corner of 11th Street and Sanford Avenue. So Celery Avenue is what 13th Street kinda turns into after it makes that little cattycorner. So yeah, it’s pretty close. And we used to walk. You used to walk everywhere. Nowadays, we hardly think about walking these days. Fedorka Would you say Dr. Starke was well-known in the community? Ford [laughs] I’d say that’s an understatement. Fedorka Okay. And… Ford He was the black doctor. So all the black folks went to him. You know, because we didn’t—the white doctors wouldn’t see us. But that doesn’t mean he wasn’t a good doctor. He was probably one the best doctors in town, but we didn’t realize that, because he was our doctor. He was the only doctor we knew. Fedorka And was he known—well-known at the time, at least in Sanford, for his role in sort of crossing—crossing that color barrier by obviously, uh, white patients coming to see him? Was that well-known in the community? Ford Well [coughs], they may—[coughs] excuse me. It may have been by adults, but I was a child, so that wasn’t something that I thought about, you know. Fedorka Right. Ford So, you know, he—I know that he was a prominent figure. Everybody knew him. And Dr. Ringland<a title="">[1]</a> too. He wasn’t in the play, but Dr. Ringland was the dentist—the dentist—the black dentist. And they shared an office. They shared an office space. Because when you went to the doctor and you went to the dentist, you went to the same building. Fedorka Okay to—just a couple of last questions to bring it back to Remade - Not Bought. You said that one of the main role of, um, productions like that is just to get a conversation started. What types of messages do you hope that got across from a production like Remade - Not Bought? Ford Well, I would—I would hope that some healing happens. Because there’s a lot of bitterness still, um, in the community among both black and whites. There’s anger. There, uh—we’ve come a long way, but we still have a ways to go. A lot of blacks are bitter and angry, because we feel—when I say “we,” I mean some blacks and whites. I don’t mean all of any group. But many of us, uh, as a people feel that we’ve struggled. And I know personally in my own life—because my name is Nancy, I got into doors that I wouldn’t have gotten into if my name had been something else. But when I walked through the door, say for an interview, I could see the countenance of the interviewer’s face change, because I was not what they expected. My—my maiden name is Harris. My name is Nancy Harris. I’m well-spoken. I’m articulate. When you speak with me on the phone, you don’t necessarily know that I’m an African American, but when I walk through the door, it’s obvious. And that hurts. And every time that happens, it hurts. So there’s[sic] scars there. There’s[sic] deep scars and they need heeling. [coughs] By the same token [coughs]—excuse me—I went through affirmative action, where a lot of white people felt left out. And I had—I had work as a result of affirmative action—a pretty good job. I was a machinist. And, in that shop—and I was in Rochester, New York, where they thought things were better—and the white guys, they would yell things at me across the shop. And tell me that I was taking the food out of some guy’s family’s mouth, because I shouldn’t be there, because I’m black and female. So we have these kinds of conversations. It gives the opportunity to know that we’re all human. All the parts, the same ways. The human way. And that we all have feelings, and they should be honored. And that we all have rich culture and tradition. And I think it’s important for us to learn about each other’s culture more and more, so that we can appreciate our differences and move forward. Because, in order to hold a person down, you have to stay down there with them. And it’s important for us all to rise. Fedorka Um, do you think Celery Soup and Remade - Not Bought, um— it[sic] puts a very positive spin on a lot of these memories and do—do you think there’s any—do you think it’s does it effectively with this healing process? Ford Um, yes. I think it does. I think anytime we address these things head-on, that it’s effective. It may not always feel good, but it’s like a shot. Doesn’t feel good when you get it, but what it does is work. The benefit feels good. Fedorka Okay. Uh, thank you very much for your help. If you—do you have anything you want to say about Celery Soup or the just importance of it, he importance of community theater, the importance of approaching community’s history in this manner? Ford Well, I’d just like to say that I’m very happy that this project exists—that Creative Sanford exists. And that Creative Sanford sees the benefit of doing this work. And I hope that people will support it. You know, theatre is not well-supported in general, and in particular, community theatre. We have a lot of good, um—good actors and actresses in community theatre. One of the things that I love about Celery Soup is that everyone who auditions gets cast. And even though I had experience coming into it, it’s a wonderful opportunity for people who have never been on a stage before to get out there and see if they like it and have an opportunity to—to go someplace, because this is the way that—there are a lot of people that we see on television and on the big screen, who got their start in community theater. It’s important and I do think it should be valued, and people should support it. Fedorka Well, thank you very much… Ford Thank you. Fedorka For all your thoughts. <div> <div> <a title="">[1]</a> Correction: Dr. Edward D.

Oral histories Community theater--United States Theater--United States Theater managers Colquitt (Ga.) Orlando (Fla.) Race relations--United States Playwriting Description Oral history told by Trish Thompson, Vice President of Creative Sanford, Inc. The interview was conducted by Autumn Reisz and Mark Miller on October 11, 2013 and focuses on Thompson's experiences with Creative Sanford and Celery Soup. Other topics include adapting the Swamp Gravy model to Celery Soup, how Creative Sanford and Celery Soup have evolved over time, the oral history interviewing process, partnering with the African-American community, the effects of the George Zimmerman trial on Sanford, adapting oral histories into community plays, goals of Creative Sanford and Celery Soup, community involvement and feedback, fundraising and the Celery Ball, production costs, preserving the legacy of Creative Sanford and Celery Soup, and maintaining community involvement. Creative Sanford, Inc. is a non-profit organization created to manage Celery Soup community theater productions. The original idea for the Celery Soup project came from Jeanine Taylor, the owner of a folk-art gallery on First Street in Sanford, Florida. Their first production was Touch and Go, which took several years of planning. The play focused on how the people of Sanford overcame obstacles throughout their history. Some of these stories include the fall of Sanford's celery industry, the Freeze of 1894-1895, and the closing of Naval Air Station (NAS) Sanford in the 1960s. Richard Geer and Jules Corriere, partners from Community Performance International, were in charge of assessing oral histories, converting them into scenes for the play, and writing original songs. Director Geer also used an all-volunteer cast from the local community, many of which were not experienced actors. During the process of producing the show, Creative Sanford decided to rehabilitate an historic building, the Princess Theater, which was located on 115 West First Street and owned by Stephen Tibstra. The Creative Sanford offices are housed in the Historic Sanford Welcome Center, located at 203 East First Street. As of December 2013, the Executive Board for Creative Sanford included President Brian Casey, Vice President Trish Thompson, Treasurer Linda Hollerbach, Secretary Dr. Annye Refoe, and Founder Jeanine Taylor.

Um, if you just want to take a second and introduce yourself and we’ll get started on the questions. Thompson Okay. I’m Trish Thompson and I am, um, former president of Creative Sanford for four years now, and vice president, and theater manager. Um, when we do our interviews we tell where we are and what the atmosphere is. So I’ll say we’re in my office and, um, the atmosphere is quiet and we only have an air-conditioner going that could possibly interrupt. Miller Okay. Thompson So I’m ready when you are. Miller Alright. Thompson Start asking! Miller Well, thanks. Okay, um, what is Celery Soup? Thompson Okay. Celery Soup is Florida’s Folk Life Play. It’s a story that is comprised—a play, excuse me—that is comprised of story gathering which we have done, which is a lost art, and we, uh, get them from the citizens of Seminole County[, Florida] and hire a playwright. They put the stories together and that becomes Celery Soup: Florida’s Folk Life Play and we’ve done three performances, um, with the first one being Touch and Go, the second one being Made - Not Bought, and the third one being Remade - Not Bought. And, um, there—it went over so well, we’re—we’re just—we’re real happy with it and we’re already in—working with the playwright to get another one on the road for next year. So, uh, Creative Sanford is the umbrella organization. We are the producers of Celery Soup: Florida’s Folk Life Play. Miller Oh, very nice. Um, uh, what is the mission of Celery Soup? Thompson Uh, the mission of Creative Sanford—now you’ve got to know that we are the 501(c)(3) —Creative Sanford is. The, uh, actual production is Celery Soup—that’s the branding—is Celery Soup. It’s always Celery Soup. Every year the name of the play will change, but when they say, “What’s happening with Celery Soup: Florida’s Folk Life Play?” You know, then you tell ‘em whatever the new thing is that’s happening. Um, I’d have to read you our mission. Miller Oh, alright. That’s fine. No, that was excellent. Thompson Yeah. Miller Yeah. So, um, how did the idea for Celery Soup develop? Thompson Okay, the idea for, um, Celery Soup was, through our, um, person—the—the people that we knew in Colquitt, Georgia. And so Jeanine Taylor, our founder, went up there, met the people, saw the show and, um, and decided to bring it to Sanford when she moved her, uh, business here. And it was to help the economy and, uh, that was the first thought was that, you know, it was going to be an economic driver, bring people to Sanford, and of course help her business and other businesses in town. And she got the mayor and other people interested and they went up, saw the show, said, “Yes. This would be great for Sanford,” and that’s how it came to be in Sanford. Then we spent three hard years with interviewing people and getting the community to understand what we do. We hired, uh, uh, Celery Soup—I mean, excuse me, Swamp Gravy—to come to Sanford and teach us how to do the interviews. Uh, they gave us the booklet that we use and, uh—just on a side note—uh, Freddie [Roman-Toro] who is—was our intern this spring, he rewrote it and updated it and got it where, um, it would fit in more with the RICHES [Regional Initiative for Collecting the History, Experiences, and Stories of Central Florida] Mosaic Interface that we’re gonna be using with UCF [University of Central Florida]. [phone rings] Miller Alright. How did you change the Swamp Gravy model to fit the needs of Sanford? Thompson You know, that’s really interesting, because they’re—was that your question? Miller No. That’s not. Thompson Alright.[laughs] Reisz But Mark [Miller] really liked it. Thompson Yes. Okay. Now when you’re interviewing, you know, you might not want the subject to know that you [laughs]—so you’re gonna learn along with me, um, the um—we been—what was the question again? I’m sorry. Reisz Um, how did you change the Swamp Gravy model… Thompson Oh, okay. Reisz To fit Sanford’s needs? Thompson Swamp Gravy’s model—2,000 people—very small town, very isolated—and they had to draw from churches and, uh, they went way outside the area to bring people in and they had to bus them in to, uh, to come to the play. And everyone in the community was involved in it, because, you know, 2,000 people and you’re puttin’ on a production with a hundred people, you know, that’s—that’s almost everybody in the town, at one point or another, has been in the play. So for us, we’re in Central Florida. we compete with [Walt] Disney [World], the I[nterstate-4 corridor. um, we wanted to reach out to The Villages. that’s very difficult to reach out to The Villages, because they already have so much, um, entertainment and what have you that it’s right there at their fingertips. And they don’t come to Orlando very much. We found that out through the United Arts [of Central Florida], uh, president at that time, Margot Knight, that it was very tough to get The Villages, and so we’ve made so inroads into that and we do have one person who brings people in from there, but it’s, you know—that is, —that is harder. For us, we’re more sophisticated. Um, the area there was—you could do just about anything for, you know, nothing, because there were no regulations and no, you know—the city didn’t make ‘em do this and that. So when we started, we had a lot of legal and financial, um, and city rules and regulations that we had to comply with. And I would suggest to anybody who is gonna to do something like this: do not cut corners on your legal and your—those kind of responsibilities in— in getting your, um, work-up with your city, so that your—you know, you’re not gonna get, quote, “a free ride,” but, you know, you’ll have a good working relationship with the city, if you comply with what they want done. So… Reisz Um, how has how has Creative Sanford and Celery Soup—how has it evolved from when you first started the program? Thompson Oh my goodness. It has really evolved. When we first started we wanted to put on a show, Okay? One production a year and we were gonna—oh, someone was gonna give us a building. We’ve gotten a whole big song and dance of, you know, where you were gonna put it on. Well, we couldn’t find any place that would allow us to put it on. And the one theater that was in town, it was: number one, 500 seats 450 to 500 seats. And it had the fourth wall, which of course we didn’t know anything about, but it—the fourth wall was an invisible wall between the audience and the cast. and so, um, the community theater, one of the things that they require is that it is community involved and, you know, so it’s, um—it’s theater in the three-quarter is what we have. We don’t—we ended up renting a space. So number one, we have rent now and it’s not a free space. And so when we rented it, we had to sign a lease. And when we signed a lease, that changed—I mean, it was like the before and the after. The before lease and after lease. [laughs] Because then we became a theater, and the theater has to support itself. So you can’t have one play in the fall and the spring maybe—two plays—and maintain a theater. You know you got your rental. You got all your utilities you’ve got to pay. So we had to have other shows. So we first started with a group that wanted to have a home and they were called “The Princess Players.” And so they put on five performances during the year and, you know, we produced them. And so we did make money through that and were able to pay the rent, but so now after three years, since 2010, we made another big leap in that we realize that the theater was as important as Celery Soup. If we don’t have the theater, we’re in the same boat as everybody else, with searchin’ for a place to put your thing on and it’s gonna cost you a tremendous amount of money to be that little person who’s begging for a place to have a show. And after being in the theater, we didn’t want to go back to being in a gymnasium or someplace like that. So we co-op the theater and we have three organizations that co-op with us and they own the theater for those periods of time. So that helps pay the rent. Phew, there’s something here. So that pays, you know—that gets our rent paid. So then as time goes on, in the next year or two, we will be able to do some of the other things in our mission that we are not able to do now and, uh, the—the quantity that we would like to do and that helps other organizations that don’t have money that give them a place to showcase their art. Um, we’ve done art openings. We’ve done, uh, concerts. we’ve done, uh, with the Humanities Council—with the Dreamers and Schemers and they’ve asked us to come back in 2014 and do it again—standing room only—uh, we do The Holocaust with the Holocaust and Interfaith Council. So we’re making all these organizations that are becoming partners with us—that they’re doin’ it this year, that maybe next year, you know. and we’ll find places for ‘em to rent the theater to them for a minimal amount of money—cover the expenses—and they’re able to put something on and we’re able to provide the community with different kind[sic] of art— all different types of art. So we’re doin’ Celery Soup now. They’ll be doin’, uh, Sleeping Beauty and Grease, and the co-op people are doin’ these things. One of them is a school, so they do things through the summer. and then in August, I believe it is, we’re goin’ to do Spam-A-Lot. So it will be our first time to do, um—produce a Broadway show. And it’s a Tony Award-winning and that’s what we want to do. So we’d like to do Spam-A-Lot one year and whatever the next one, as soon as the rights open up. We want to do the most recent, like I believe next year Wicked, off-Broadway—you know, from Broadway—will be open. So this is a goal that we want to bring quality entertainment that people can afford to go to Wash—New York [City, New York] or Washington[, D.C.] or wherever. They can see really quality work, right here in Seminole County. They don’t have to go to Orlando. They don’t have to go to the arena, you know, and all that kinda thing. Miller Excellent. Um, so how do you collect the stories for the plays? Thompson Okay. Uh, we advertised. We had the Swamp Gravy Institute come down and we had a whole group of people come in and learn how to do the interviews. and then they’d ask their friends, “Can I interview you?” So it started out friends of the people who are to interview and moved out from there. We went, um, Serenity Towers, which at that time was called Bram Towers, and we did practice interviews with the older ladies and gentlemen and—and, uh, the—it was kind of a learning experience for everyone. And then we also, um, then put ads in the paper. And when we first got started we did a thing called, uh, Talks from the Stalks, is what we called it—like a stalk of celery. And, uh, the newspaper<a title="">[1]</a> was nice enough that we would put in little excerpts from interviews that we’d done. And so they’d do a little blurb—we’d hopefully have a picture of the person that spoke—and then a little piece out of their story. And then it would be the quote advertisement call to tell your story. So that’s how— that’s how we got started, with just grass-roots, asking your friends, and moving out into the community. And the most difficult part was being accepted by the black community, because there was a lot of, um, [sighs] negativity in both directions, in that, um, the black community was told that we were exploiting them by some people, who, for some reason didn’t understand what we were doin’. There’s a fly in here. Um, and then there was some on the other side that didn’t know how to relate to the black community. So it was a give-and-take and over the last six years. This year we were invited to Hopper Academy. Um, this was the first year we had been so lucky to have two reunions” The Hopper [Academy] and then the Crooms Academy [of Information Technology] we’re going to do in December. So that’s the, that’s a real plus for us to be able to have made the inroads into the black community—that they trust us. And, uh, if you know anything about Sanford, we’ve just gone through an awful trial<a title="">[2]</a> that brought up a lot of really bad memories from a lot of people—black and white. And, uh, it’s just, uh— it’s just a miracle that we’re such a good community that we overcame the outside pressures and didn’t succumb to anything that they wanted to [laughs]—they wanted us to have a riot or something. I don’t know what the media wanted, but, uh, they didn’t get it, because we’re not that kind of a town. We’re a good town. We’re—we’re working together. And I think we have helped over the last six years to help the community realize that, you know, all that outside stuff that made ‘em appreciate that we really are a closely knit community, much closer than was realized and yet there’s still a lot of—a lot of energy and a lot of negativity that—that is like post-traumatic stress disorder. You know, it’s—you think of the worst thing that ever happened you think—you in your life. It flashes [snaps] to you immediately. You know exactly was the worst thing in your mind that ever happened to you. And that may be, this—this—this trial just triggered. That throwback to that worst feeling of inadequacy and—and negativity that they ever had. So, you know, we—we have to appreciate that and realize it. And I’ve talked to people who have said, “Oh, why don’t they just get over it?” And I say, “What’s the worst thing that ever happened to you?” “Oh, that I lost my child,” or, you know—I mean that’s horrific. And I say, “Well, get over it.” Whoa, did they get mad at me? But, I say, you know, you’ve got to understand—and it was somebody that wanted to interview, but they didn’t have the empathy or the sympathy or the—the feelings that were needed to be an interviewer in this organization. So, when you’re doin’ this, I’d say to anybody: be sure that the people who are interviewers have an open mind and/or can keep their feelings under—you know, under the radar—under the cover. Miller Well, that brings up a question of when you’re asking the stories, what sort of themes—you ask for themes? Or how do you go about… Thompson Well, we’re… Miller Pitching the story. Thompson We started with a theme that was, uh, perseverance. And this was in 2010, and so our first story was about, uh, how Sanford and the community had overcome all sorts of natural, um, disasters. We had floods, and we had, uh, fires, and we had—the weather froze—and, I mean, uh, the weather was very cold and the fruit and vegetables and the trees froze. You know, so it changed the whole economy of things. The, uh, Navy left Sanford. Big, big, big, big problem. and Sanford’s overcome and actually gotten better from all the different changes that have happened. So that was what—it was perseverance, and we used as a sub thing, openin’ a can of worms [laughs]. So we—we just—“So what is,” you know, “What were you mad about? What did you not like? What did—what did ya get over on somebody?” You know, we had all kinds of questions that we tried to pull out of people that were deeper than just—“Who are you? Where did— where did you go to school and what do you do? “ Miller Well, you did something like, uh, what you’re, um, talking about, perseverance and… Thompson Mmhmm. Miller You know, can of worms. How do you integrate that into the play? Thompson Well, that is what you have your playwright for. Now we’re, uh, setting up now and working with UCF with this, um—we have, um—May, um—what do ya call ‘em? With, uh, the keyword—keywords. So it might be perseverance. It might be love. It might be hate. it might be alligators or animals, or, you know—so, you’ll have keywords and the, um—um, the—the writers can key in that word, and then up comes the transcription from the play of that—of that—that might fit that story—may might fit that thing. So, uh, next year’s going to be a comedy. and so we’re, you know—we’re gonna have a theme that’s going to be outta—we don’t know yet—outta, uh—that hadn’t been decided. Uh, that’s how you do it is you decide on your theme and you go to your playwright and say, “I want you to write about this theme and here are your keywords and you can go to all these different” —so maybe when we do an interview—the interview usually lasts an hour and a half, um—in that hour and a half, you might get 10 good stories or 10 stories, you know. It depends on how fast they talk or, you know, what—what you could pull out of ‘em. Some of ‘em in an hour you won’t get one that’s worth anything. But, uh, it might be able to use in backgrounds somewhere. And some of ‘em you could use every single story in, you know—that they tell. They’re all just—oh my gosh. This is great. And we have several of those families that have done that and one is Uncle Dieter and one is Mr. [Elmer] Baggs. Both of them have just fabulous stories that they tell and we’ve used them in all of our productions. We’ve used stories from them and we go back, like you said—we go back to them to, you know, harvest more stories from them and ask different questions and—you know. Some of ‘em are just so funny. You know, that you, you forget that you’ve to get in to some of these power depth things too. Reisz Have you encountered any challenges working with a playwright that may or may not be from the Sanford area? is there any challenge to that? Thompson We—yes. We have had that challenge. Um, the one that the professional group that we used, they came and taught us a lot, and they were not from our area. So they had to do a lot of historical research at the libraries and, um, the historic society, so they got a lot of input there. Though it was very good for them, but also they would say things that we would say, uh, “Stop. We can’t use that. We—this—it’s not correct.” It’s, you know—or it’s too—it’s still too politically, um, explosive. That—that we don’t want to bring that to our town at this point. Later we’ll—we’ll delve into that, but right now we can’t do that. And, uh, and one of ‘em is about—and it—it—it’s about, uh, ah, the [Mayfair] Country Club. And the—the playwright wanted to put that in there and I said, “We cannot put this in there. They are going to court. This is a lawsuit. It has not been [laughs]—you know, we can’t put something that’s an ongoing thing that maybe somebody would be a juror on that trial that saw our view of this. No, no, no, no, no. we can’t do that.” So it’s a perfect—it’s a perfect example of— of havin’ to help, you know, keep things in the right frame that we want to. Reisz Have you, um, always used, uh, a playwright to produce your plays and a professional director and have you guys done any of that on your own? Thompson We’re in the process now of doing that and we hired—we’ve hired, um, people who have professional—have had professional experience, but are for—we only use the professionals the first time, ‘cause that was like $125,000 and so we had to raise money for a long time to—to get that together. And that was the year that we signed the contract with the theater. So, you know, all of this and financial part of it all mixes together. And you realize, once you start this, you are a theater. You know, you’re not just—unless you’re going to keep it on a low key, not very large, but if you want to go big, you’re going to have to be a theater. And we want to go big. We’ve—want to go to the [John F.] Kennedy Center [for Performing Arts] in—in, Washington. We’re already set to be at the Dr. Phillips Performing Arts Center. We’re working with Central Florida, uh, uh, Community Arts and they’re gonna do a Christmas that’s gonna be the same show, or similar to the same show, that they put on at Christmas at Disney. So it’s the candlelight, uh, service that you pay 80-90 dollars for and you’ll pay 10-20-15, you know, for this show here. Because we want community to be able to see what we’re doing. And, and, uh, that is—that’s part of our mission, to bring the community together. Reisz Um, so the professional—that’s the direction that you guys are going to go in going forward is using, uh, not necessarily, um, director per se, but definitely a professional playwright and things like that? you going to keep that? Thompson Well, no. we’ve brought the community on the playwright too. As a matter of fact, um, even I helped write [laughs] a little bit of the play that we’re doing right now. So I can’t call myself—I call myself an editor, not a playwright. Miller Well, that was one of the questions, that, um, regarding—do you have any employees? Thompson No. we’re—not yet. Miller You were talking about having some professionals... Thompson Uh uh. Miller So, um, you hire people as you need them? Or… Thompson The way they—yes. and the way that works, um, is that they would get a stipend. Um, you would be for, um, a director, you might pay 750-1000 dollars, something like that. It’s not big money. And they have to work for six or eight weeks before the show to get it ready. I mean, that’s a lot of work for, you know, that kind of money. Uh, but a lot of community theater only pays the music director. Everybody else is volunteer. And we have thousands and thousands hours of volunteer hours, because we have no paid staff. We do have some[sic] paid artist, but not any paid staff. And nobody and—none of the actors are paid. Miller So you draw your expertise from the community also? Thompson Right. and that is a lucky thing that we have. That we have so much theater and, um, entertainment in Central Florida, and people who want to do theater. And they’re tied into day to day jobs that, um, you know, stifle their creative—and, and they do it for free. They do it for the love of theater. Which I didn’t understand. I’m a businessperson. I came out of, you know, owning my own business for many, many years and my husbands a, uh, CPA [Certified Public Account] and ran an insurance company. And, oh my gosh. You know, everything is the bottom line kiddo [laughs]. So that’s kinda where I fit in. And t’s a little difficult for me to learn and having to learn. And most of the other people on the [Executive] Board are businesspeople. And they—it’s—it’s—it’s somethin’ to learn how to do this. Miller Well, what—you brought up the board. What role does that—the board play? Thompson Uh, the board makes the decisions on where the money goes, and—and where the fundraisers and, um—we do all the—all the grunt work that has to be done. We do the marketing. We do the, uh, advertising. We do the, uh, um—um, the Celery Ball, which is our main fundraiser. We reach out to all community to—to get the word out and speak to groups and make connections wherever we can with the politicians, in, uh, um—you know, just have to reach out to every single facet. And it’s—it’s—it’s a miracle. It’s wonderful. It is wonderful. And I love working this class that’s a very diverse class, with older, younger, men, women. It’s great. You know, I going to learn so much from you all [nods]. Reisz How, um, how is—how is Creative Sanford and Celery Soup, how have—how have you been successful in achieving your goals? Thompson Well, we’ve put on three shows. Yes. We’ve brought in community who have done playwright—playwriting—who have done music, who have done directing, that are from the community, that were paid a small stip—small stipend. And, um, you know, this is—this is the goal. is to bring the community together. We’ve brought people together who would have never have met. Um, one lady who’s a very prominent, uh, poet, and she was in our show and she helped write a little bit of it. And, um, she was afraid of one the—of one of the people in the show. It was a young black guy and she was an older black lady, but she wasn’t raised in any of the—so she had a whole generational plus economic—there wasn’t a reason to be afraid of this young person. But she was—she was fearful. And so she really learned. And the—and the young person learned too. How to be more respectful and so that’s—that’s a goal is—you know, I think people call it bullying and all of that, but it’s really—it’s learning how to love each other and work with each other, and um, and blend into to, uh, international, you know, family. Reisz You mentioned earlier that there was a couple of things that, um, you hadn’t achieved. You know, you want to do more outreach with other community groups and things like that? Thompson Right. Reisz Is there anything else you—that Creative Sanford would like to do, but you haven’t been able to do yet? Thompson Oh, yes. We’d like to, um—we’d like to have a performing arts center. and we have talked to, uh, Congressman [John L.] Mica about that. um, preliminary, stages, of maybe having an arts council—not an arts council. We have the Seminole Cultural Arts Council, but um, to work with them with Creative Sanford to have our theater in a building, to have uh, um, uh, galleries in the theater, and have gift shops, and have, uh, study areas, and training areas, and studios. I mean, we’ve got a big group of ideas and that would—that would involve all the arts. And that’s one of the things that, um, is real—real difficult to get off the ground on no money. So that’s where you’re going to look for federal grants and that’s where you need your politicians to help you. And Seminole Cultural Arts Council and ourselves are working together to, uh, work with Congressman Mica and—and see if we can get one in Seminole County. You know, there’s a lot people, there’s a lot of money in Seminole County. It’s all going south. So we want to bring some of it back to Seminole County and let them realize that, not only are we a bedroom place, but also a great place to—to just enjoy life and make your whole—whole area more livable. Reisz Um, why is it important—in particular in Sanford, of course—but why is it important that these plays are produced by the community for the community? Thompson Well, that goes right back to, um, people learning each other, meeting each other, uh, getting together, and becoming friends and, um, meshing as a team. And they go out when—when we have done this, um, the group says, “Hey, I know a place that we need to go.” So emails go back and then we just get together, we go out, maybe put on a performance or—not a whole show—but do vignettes, maybe do a little bit of Uncle Dieter maybe do a little bit of, um, Elmer Bags. Just, you know, somethin’ funny or, er, poignant, or somethin’ like that. We’ve done one called Generations,where the woman tells the story of how her family came from Africa and, you know, where they landed, and you know, how her history came about, and now she’s the last one in her line. And she says—at the end, she says, “Who will remember me? Will you?” And it just—oh, it just gives me cold chills right now. It’s just—it just tells people—opens their eyes and minds and hearts to, you know, what’s going on in the rest of world and how other people are feeling and, um, we always want to do more of that. Reisz Uh, you had mentioned earlier that—that the—that Creative Sanford and Celery Soup in particular had been really well received by the community? Thompson Yes. Reisz Um, how have you integrated community feedback into your projects and the things that you’re doing, besides just the interviews? Thompson Well, that is—that is one of the big things that we do. When we have the play and getting it ready, okay? We have a day, that we have—invite all the community to come to the theater and we do a run through of the play. And if they have feedback, “Oh that—that story wasn’t there. That story is over on Eleventh Street.” “Oh, this is wrong,” or “I don’t like this,” or, oh—they don’t laugh or, you know, they think something’s offensive. And we take that all into consideration. We’re very much attuned to what—it’s like what we tell the playwrights, sometimes we say, “Hey. Something we already know politically you can’t do that. They’re already in a—they’re already in a lawsuit.” But it is the same thing with other peoples’ feelings. And, um, we had one lady who got up and said she loved this part and the other lady got up and said that, “This isn’t the way it was where I was.” And it was complete opposite, so it was like, “Okay. Well, we’ll tell this story here and let’s interview you and get your story for the next time.” So it’s—you know, we’re going to tell our stories as much as we can, but we want to—we want to be fair to everybody, but that is what we do. That’s part of the community—that we learned from the professionals. It’s that you have—when you start your cast, you—you have a day that you talk about, um, being compassionate and—and working with your other cast members and all of that sort of thing. And, um, that kind the way it starts and then, you know, we get this real tight group going and people know you now. For me, see, I am known as the “ticket lady,” because I was always down there working the tickets and, you know, all this. They didn’t know I was president. they didn’t care who I was. I was the ticket lady. That’s the one they saw every night. But now they’re seeing me in a completely different role, because I’m in the play. And I have just a small—I have three small parts, but, you know, one of ‘em is absolutely just as silly as all get out and so they’re seeing, “Oh, the ticket lady does something besides” [laughs], you know, “sell the tickets. She might have some other good things that she can do.” So they’re seeing me in a different light and I think we see everybody in a different light. That—that whatever they perceive themselves to be, we’re seeing them in a different, more human light. Miller Well you’ve been with the project from the beginning, um… Thompson Just about. Miller Well, what—what are your biggest surprises about this? Thompson Oh, all of it. All of it. I had no idea how much work it was gonna be, how much fun it was gonna be, how enlightening it was gonna be. It’s just been—it’s just—it’s been like [sighs] renewed youth of somethin’. You know, you’ve thought, Oh, well, my identity is a restaurant owner. This—I’m the Rib Ranch, you know. Well then you retire and I got all involved in this and—and, uh, now I feel like, “Well, hey. This, this is rejuvenated me.” and, you know, put your brain in gear again and you have all these new goals, because I’d already completed all my goals. I was the best restaurant that sold barbeque in Seminole County and, you know, where do you go from there? So this was a new goal and set new things. So age never matters. Grandma Moses became famous in her 80s, so maybe I’ll become famous in my 70s [laughs]. Miller Ah, what are some of the challenges in creating and maintaining a project like Celery Soup? Thompso Financial. There you go. That’s the bottom line. That’s the big problem, is getting’ the money. Yup. Miller Well, um, you mentioned fundraisers. Thompson Mmhmm. Miller And you have a Celery Ball. Thompson Right. Miller Do you want to describe that a little bit and some of the other fundraisers? Thompson Okay. What we’ve done—and, of course, this has evolved too. When we first started we had the Celery Ball, we had a king and queen. And the king and queen raised money—the king and queen candidates raised money—and, um, the first year we raised over $30,000. The second year about $30,000. The third year about $25,000. And the fourth year $10,000. Okay. economy. There you go. The economy’s going down, people didn’t have money to do all this, so that next year it was—we had a lot of silent auctions. We did not have, and we’re not having this year, a king and queen. So we feel like—okay. We’ve kind of burned that out. it’s got a life of about four years and then you’ve got to go to something else. So we’ve moved the play—we’ve moved it to a different location. It’s gonna be a The Great Gatsby themed, so it’s gonna to be ‘20s-‘30s. Gonna be a lotta fun and, uh, um—and we have silent auction and trips and things like that, that we’re gonna be putting out to—to raise money instead of having—it was real easy when you had kings and queens and they’re all out having fundraisers and, you know, they’re doing all the work and you’re raking in the money. But it doesn’t work that way. It doesn’t work that way for the whole thing. Miller Alright, um… Reisz [inaudible] Miller Yeah, uh, what are, um, some of your production costs? And in that the price of your tickets and stuff? Thompson Mmhmm. okay. We price our tickets at $15—well 20 and 18 at first—and then we moved it down to 15 and 12. And, ah—again, it’s to meet the mission of bringing things and the quality—best quality we can—to the community. And these are bad times. I don’t know how you guys are seeing it, but, you know, everybody is working one or two, you know—working extra jobs. Still not, you know, cuttin’ it with the way things are going with businesses, where they’re cutting people’s hours back. “Oh, we’re only going to give you 26 and we’re never gonna give you more than 32, so you can’t be a full-time employee, so we won’t have to pay you benefits.” Da, da, da, da, da. So we look at all of that and, uh, we decided on our price, and because we’re not usin’ the professionals. We’re back—we give just the small stipend—we do a production, is about 10,000, mkay? Is what it costs us to put on a production. and a lot of it is borrowing from different places in the community. Oh, and now that we’re a co-op we can say, “Oh, do you have some lights we can borrow?” Whereas we may have had to spend 10,000 on lights the first year, which we did. We had to rent ‘em. That, you know, now we can get lights and—as a matter of fact, we just had two people who gave us lights just in the last week. So, you know, we’re getting the lights—we don’t still have as much lighting as we need, and that’s one of the things that we’ll get a grant to help us get lighting and sound equipment and, you know, these kinds of things that we need. But, um, yeah. that’s it. Financial. Reisz Um, much of what Celery Soup has been doing is preserving the history of and the stories of Sanford. Thompson Right. Reisz How are you preserving the legacy of Celery Soup and Creative Sanford itself? Thompson Well, we have two ways. Uh, Alicia [Clarke] at the, um, Sanford Museum has asked us for copies of everything. So they’re going to archive the beginnings and all of our—as time goes by, they’ll do it. And so I’m keeping double records of, you know, two pieces of paper and so we’ll keep one and give one to her. And of course, we’re expecting that a lot of our archiving is going to go up on RICHES, so we’ll have that as part of our archival process. And we, um—you have to have a disaster program, you know, and so we have disaster programs and we have things backed up with—on the flash drives—or we have them backed up on secondary computers. We have, um, fireproof safes that we keep things in. and we keep things off, um—out of the office. I don’t—I can’t think of what the word is. but somewhere else that, um, we keep things—the financial things and the historic things—um, backed up. So that’s how we have to do it. And—and the things like this, I’m really happy that if anything happened to this little dress, um—this was the dress that was worn by the little two and a half year old little girl, who was in our very first production—Kalayla. and, um, so definitely want pictures of that. And that’s—that’s an archival thing. If this rotted, we wouldn’t have it. So… Miller Okay. um, how do you keep the community engaged in Celery Soup, uh, especially long-term? Thompson That’s a problem. You have to keep moving and especially when we have to look two ways: the economy and wearing yourself out, you know, with asking people over and over again for help. And, uh— so the engagement—we just try to broaden and not to go back to the same wells every time. That if there’s 54,000 people in this town, and if 2,000 people are helping us, we need to get to the next 2,000 and the next 2,000, and the next 2,000. And we’ve reached, um,—as a matter of fact, just last week we were given a check for $250 from an organization that had never helped us before. So here we are. We’re getting into that outer ring and so we’ll just, slowly but surely, we’re just gonna reach out all through the whole area and get some of these people. Mercedes[-Benz] helped us and then they kind of backed—backed away with what they were doing and so we’re going to different places to make this thing work. And we’re on David Maus’ [Toyota’s] jumbo-tron out there, which we’ve never been on there before and so, you know, that’s a first for us. So we just keep moving ou.t and we’ve never had any kind of TV advertising or never had any TV that supported us, and so this year, uh—this 2014, we’re really gonna put a push on getting sponsors of, um, in kind or whatever we can get from the, uh, major stations. We’ve had radio. We’ve had, um, um, public and NCR<a title="">[3]</a> and public broadcasting, but we want to get more into the mainstream too. Reisz Um, I know that we are getting tight on time, so we have one last question that we’d like to ask you, before we release you. Thompson Okay. Mkay. Reisz Uh, but what advice would you give another community thinking about beginning a similar project? Thompson The advice that I would give them is to contact everybody that has ever done one that you can find and ask them the questions that you’re asking. How do you do it? How much did it cost? We had a group that came in and asked us those questions and we answered them and, uh, and it was very interesting. We had—they came down and visited us and it was a very interesting time. But, um, whatever the people tell you it’s going to cost, figure it’s going to cost at least 50 percent or a third to 50 percent more, okay? It’s much more expensive than you think it’s gonna be. Uh, some people think, “Oh, well everything be given to us.” and that’s what we were told” Oh, people would just reach out to you and they’re gonna give you this and they’re gonna give—let me tell ya. in a big market like this, they don’t do that. Maybe in very small towns, yes. You can get that kind of immediate help, but in a big, big area like we’re in it’s not the same process. And that’s where we differ with Swamp Gravy too, in that, you know, we have a very different financial field back and forth there. So, yeah. It’s, um— it is—it’s mainly financial, legal. Be sure if you write contracts, if you go with professionals that, you know, you get a good tight that you’re protected and safe. And we went to an entertainment attorney and had her look over the contract and make changes and things to protect us a little bit better. So those are the things that you’ve got to have. Reisz Well thank you very, very much. We greatly appreciate it. Um, we really appreciate it. And then we’ll probably come up with some other questions. If you think we missed anything, let us know. We’d be happy to ask about it. Thompson [laughs] Okay. Miller And we… <div> <div> <a title="">[1]</a> The Sanford Herald. </div> <div> <a title="">[2]</a> State of Florida v.

This is October 30th, 2013. And, um, we are interviewing, uh, Luticia Lee. Do you go by “Tish?” “Tisch?” Lee Tish. French Tish? Lee Tish. French How do you spell that? “T-I-C-H” or “S-H”? Lee S-H. Maliczowski T-I-S-H. French You know, on some of the things we had from Creative Sanford[, Inc]. It had “C,” and so I’m glad we asked. Dingle Yes[?]. French Um, and so the first—let[sic] me do is to ask you: would you intro—you mind introducing yourself to us? All [laugh] Lee Well… Maliczowski Just tell ‘em your name. Dingle Tell ‘em your name. Lee My name is Luticia Lee, and I was born in Sanford in, um, 1923. And my house was built in 1926. And at—growing up, I could walk everywhere. I could walk to school. And um, at that time, there were just three houses on the block. And then in, um—I’m not sure when—but the Spencer house that was on the corner, it burned. It was the old house and it burned. So, until ’46, there was just this house and the one my aunt and uncle built. And then in ‘46, Braley[?] Oaklem[?] built more houses. And um, so things really did change you know. You—you didn’t have that many people here [laughs]. And, uh, you knew everybody. And now, I go to town and I don’t know anybody. All [laugh] Lee It’s changed so, but, um—and, I do have friends that I went to school with. And we try to go out once a week for dinner and we graduated together in ‘42 [laughs]. And that’s when, um, my dad—Mom and Daddy gave me my cedar chest. And that’s when, um, Mama crocheted me a bedspread, which I still have. And Daddy wanted to make something, and that’s when—it was the beginning of the [World] War [II]. And they asked for scrap metal and that’s when they took—were taking out—down their cannon. And Daddy had—was in the military and he helped take it down. And he got the, um, spoke from the wheel, and made my rolling pin, which is the only rolling pin I have used all these years. And I’m giving it to Cathy [Dingle],<a title="">[1]</a> ‘cause she cooks, and she bakes cookies, and she rolls ‘em. All [laugh] Dingle She<a title="">[2]</a> cooks as well, but I bake [laughs]. Maliczowski I get the, um… Dingle Fireless… Maliczowski Fireless cooker. All [laugh] Maliczowski I’m gonna do the crock pot thing. All [laugh] French Oh great. Great. Lee So she gets the—and um… But I’ve had a wonderful life. I really have. Been right here. Still have friends that I’ve had all my life. I’ve lost a lot, but when you reach 90, you, um—you—it happens, you know? So—and if I get sad, I just sit down and count my blessings, ‘cause I’ve got a lot of them. I have three children, I have four grandchildren, I have four great-grandchildren, and I have wonderful in-laws. Everybody is good to me. And my husband took care of me. He’s been gone 10 years, but I have somebody do the yard, I have a landscaper, I have, um, a cleaning service to do the house. So I just sit around and watch people work. All [laugh] Lee I don’t work anymore [laughs]. French Well we’re—we’re putting you to work today, because you are our resident historian. All [laugh] French And we’re—we’d love to hear a little bit more about Sanford during World War II. Uh, you graduated from high school in ’42? Lee Yeah. French And what are your memories of that period—of being in Sanford during the war? Lee Well, now, I was working during the war. Um, I was a secretary at the ice plant. And um, and we, um—we iced the cars. That, you know—I didn’t do it. Unidentified [laughs] Lee The people did. And, um, I kept the records. And, uh, they took all the stuff to troops and everything. French These are railroad cars or— or shipping cars? What kind of cars were they? Lee They were railroad cars. Railroad cars. It was the—on the tracks out on [Florida State Road] 46. And I think they still—they don’t—I don’t know if the ice plant’s still there. Dingle No. Maliczowski It was for years, but, uh, I don’t think it is anymore. Lee And, um… French And you were a secretary at the… Lee Mmhmm. French Ice plant? Lee For a few years. It didn’t really take. All [laugh] Lee I just did what I was told. And I—but, um, and it—it’s Sanford during the war. We—we had the base<a title="">[3]</a> out here. And, uh, sometimes we dated the pilots, which was a lot of fun. All [laugh] Lee But, um, I don’t know. French Did you, um—were—were there local rallies or efforts to sort of rally the town’s people? Uh, you mentioned that they decided to melt the cannon, because of the scrap metal drive. Do you remember much about the scrap metal drives, and other things? Lee Honey, I got—I—I researched that, and there’s the papers over there. French Oh. Lee And it—yeah. I wanted to know. French And so are these, uh—okay. So these are some of the materials that you—you did all the research on this, you… Lee Yes. I did. French You went down to the museum? Lee Yeah. French And um… Lee And see? It says, “County League [inaudible] scrap collection on per capita basis.” And, um, I—it was very interesting. It really was. And, and, uh “Legion pole?” Oh, I can’t read… French “Legion post will give up cannon in scrap drive.” This is perfect. This is exactly what we were hoping… Lee Yeah. French To find. You’ve done the work for us. [laughs] All [laugh] Lee Well… French Thank you. Lee I wanted to know what was, you know—and this was the Legion Hut.<a title="">[4]</a> Maliczowski And she had pictures made, and—and a frame made, and took the picture out to the Legion. Lee And see… French Oh, wonderful. Maliczowski So they would know. Lee And that’s what… French Is this also from the museum? Lee Hm? French Is this from the museum? Or is this a…. Lee Well, um… French This photograph… Lee Uh, they took a picture. You see, they didn’t have a picture out at the new Legion Hut. And, um, I thought they should have one. So I went and—and got a picture. And—of the canon, and, um, now—but I couldn’t ever find out who that man was. French Mmhmm. Lee I guess the ones that were there then were all gone. So I don’t know who he was. But anyway, I had that, um, copied and I framed it and I took it out and I gave it to them, so they’d have a picture of the old Legion Hut. French That is wonderful. Lee And they put it up. French That is wonderful. Lee So, anyway… French This is great. And this—you—these pictures are from the museum? Is that where you found these? Lee Yes. I found them… French Great. Lee From the paper. French Great. Wow. And this is, uh, a handwritten note? Lee I had that and I can’t read it now [laughs]. French Do you rem—what of the—you wrote this for yourself? Or… Lee Yes. For me. French And what was the—what was the event that led you to write that? Lee Well, uh, I think there was something in, um—in the paper about, um… French Do you want me to read it? Dingle Want me to go look, Mama? Lee You can read it maybe. It’s about when Daddy decided to make, um… Dingle Oh, oh this is when, um—deciding which precious keepsake you wanted… Lee Oh. Dingle To write about from your cedar chest. Lee Oh. Dingle And, um, how Granddaddy wanted you to have something that was from him. And how he went about getting the—the spoke and… Lee Yeah. Dingle Making the… Lee Making my… Maliczowski Your rolling pin. Dingle Your rolling pin to go in your hope chest. That’s why you wrote that up. French And this was from the paper? Lee I wrote it up to put in the cedar chest. French Oh, to put in the cedar chest. So did you write this? Dingle So that people would know what, you know—so that we would know where it came from. We would—we would have a history of why she had it and where it came from. French Mmhmm. Lee Because, um, I wanted them to know. See, Mama crocheted the bedspread and Daddy wanted to put something in it. Dingle Mmhmm. Lee So I wrote it… Maliczowski Wrote it down for us. French So, this is the rolling pin. Do you mind if I… Lee Sure. Maliczowski Go ahead. Lee I just wrap it up. I haven’t used it for a while. But she’s going to use it to make Christmas cookies. Dingle Yes. I will. Lee You can tell it’s been used. All [laugh] Dingle Lots of biscuits. Maliczowski A lot. Yeah. Biscuit—biscuit [inaudible] and pies. Dingle Biscuits and pies are mainly what it did. French Mmhmm… Lee Mainly it was Daddy’s biscuits. Dingle That’s right. French So when I read the story about this, we got to talking and—and, uh, thought about Well, what made him think to make a rolling pin out of a spoke? Because he worked at a paper factory, correct? All Yes. French So he would have been familiar with all the equipment that you could do this with, uh, milling? It’s called “milling?” Lee Yeah, but he was superintendent of the Crown Paper Company. That’s when they—they printed they, uh, wrappers. That’s when they wrapped fruit. It was individually wrapped for a long time. They don’t do that anymore. They just pack it in boxes and ship it off. But, um, Daddy was there so—and he was in the [American] Legion, and when they went to send the cannon back, he went to help them dismantle it, and that’s when he got the spoke, and, um, that’s what he could do. He could make me a rolling pin, and that was in ‘42. Maliczowski Because everybody needed a rolling pin. All [laugh] Dingle He was also a carpenter, so he had worked with wood in building this house. And if—if you look on the floor, you’ll see there’s designs in the wood. And… Lee And there’s my—my, uh, [inaudible]… Dingle Back in the corner. So he was… Lee That Daddy had built for me, when I was—yeah. French Oh. Lee When I was four or five. Dingle So he was always thinking of things to do with wood and something else to make and something to do, so I think that just came naturally to… French Mmhmm. Dingle To do that. Lee To do the rolling pin. Dingle Something for her. Lee It would go in a cedar chest. All [laugh] Dingle It would fit. Maliczowski It would fit. French So, do you know the story of the cannon? What was the history of this cannon? Was this someth—it was brought back from World War I? Lee Well, yeah. When they built the Legion Hut. Um, I don’t know where they got the cannon. But, um, they wanted a cannon from the First World War. So, I don’t know where they got it. Now they got a cannon out at the other—the other Legion Hut. And I don’t know where they got it. I think they just feel that, you know, it’s history. They had cannons. Unidentified Mmhmm. Lee It’s an old one. It’s got wooden spokes I think. I haven’t gotten out of the car to examine it, but I’ve driven by. French Uh, so, um, what other—do you have other memories of the home front during the war or the end of the war? There’s[sic] certain moments of that period… Lee Oh, I remember end of the war. Oh, there was a parade down on First Street, and I remember being [laughs] in the car. And we was[sic] driving, and my cousins were with me, and everybody was screaming and hollering. And Mama remembered the end of the First World War. And how, um, things were downtown then. Maliczowski Now during this time, didn’t Grandma and Aunt Marty still—didn’t they run the grocery store at that time, during the war? Were they running it? [inaudible]. Lee They came in 1910. Maliczowski No, but did they still have the store in the ‘40s? Lee Yes. Maliczowski Okay. Well, tell them about them having the store and one of the reasons—like, during the war they didn’t have this much[sic] problem with food, because they had a grocery store? Lee Yeah, but they also had rationing, you know. Maliczowski Mmhmm. Lee They rationed, uh, meat. They rationed sugar, and, um—and I do remember that. Maliczowski They rationed shoes. And tell them what happened with you. She has very tiny feet. Lee Oh, yeah. Shoes were rationed. Isn’t that funny? They rationed shoes [laughs]. Oh dear. Maliczowski But she had such a hard time finding shoes that everybody—whenever she would find it they would give her their shoe coup—what were they, uh… Lee Shoe coupon. Maliczowski Shoe coupon, so that she could buy the shoes, because she would—she loved shoes. All [laugh] Lee Yeah. Dingle It was hard for her to find them in her size so if they found a pair that would fit her they… Maliczowski They would have to use somebody else’s coupon to buy her a pair of shoes. French That’s great. That’s great. Did you know soldiers who had—from Sanford—young men of your age? Lee Yes.Yeah. I remember one of the boys in my class, who was killed. He was Fred Dyson[sp]. I remember that. I don’t remember. I don’t remember a lot of them going to war. French And the base being nearby—what was—you mentioned the pilots, uh… Lee Yeah. French Was there—was[sic] there other kinds of connections to the base, besides the kind of social connections? Lee Well, um, several of my friends worked out there. And, um, I know Margie married, er, one of the pilots. And, um, a lot of them, you know—I met some of them through friends that worked there. But, um, we didn’t—I mean, they weren’t there that long, you know. You just see ‘em and I know one time we went to New Smyrna [Beach] with a group, uh, a whole—I mean, it was usually in a group. So… French You mentioned that after the war, how much Sanford changed. You mentioned I think one of—all the building… Lee Oh, yeah. French Construction in this area. Lee Construction started. Houses were built. French And so this little town you grew up in became—started to grow and grow [laughs]. Lee Yeah. And it’s still growing. All [laugh] Maliczowski Sanford was lucky, because it was both on the river and it had the railroad. Lee Yes. Maliczowski So that’s one of the reasons it was able to flourish like it did. And, um, there’s a big hotel downtown—well, now it’s not the hotel anymore, it’s, um, is the New Tribe’s Mission headquarters—world headquarters. It used to be the Mayfair Hotel. And people would come and stay for the winter, and that sort of thing. So it—ya know, it drew a lot of people and brought them here to spend their money in Sanford while they were getting away from the cold. French So, um, you stayed. People have come and people have gone. And you’ve been here, uh, and—why did you stay? Lee This is my home and I want to stay right here. French Uh, you’re surrounded by, uh, a lot of the artifacts of your life. All the great, um… Lee Yeah. French Pieces of furniture and art and… Lee Yeah. Uh huh. And Aunt Marty’s pitcher and bowl when she came in 1910. My grandfather was a doctor in Mount Olive, North Carolina. And when he died, um—he had made a—he bought a small hotel, and he made into a—that’s where he could take patients, and it was like a small hospital. And Aunt Marty worked for him. But then he died and, um, uh, Uncle [James] came down and he was—he’s the one that started the grocery store, and his friend from here was up there. and he told my Uncle James he would sell him half of the grocery store, and give his son the other half, and—if he would come down. So they all decided to come in 1910. Now Mama, and Aunt Ruth, and Grandma stayed up there ‘til they got the house built on Laurel Avenue. It burned down later. And, um, that’s when they came and Mama went to grammar school to the high school. And then they built the new—what was—we went to junior high. And it was the high school, and that’s where Mama graduated in 1913. And so Uncle James had started the grocery store—I mean, he was half-owner. But then his son didn’t like it, and he sold his half [laughs]. So it was [inaudible] and it was all during the war. French And do you have memories of the store? Lee Huh? French Do you have memories or picture of the store? Do you have any photographs of the store? Lee Ya know, it—it’s down—the building is still there, and it’s where The [Sanford] Herald is, right on the corner of Palmetto [Avenue] and First Street. And back then, the city didn’t decorate like they do[sic] now. And every, um, owner of the store would. And I remember Daddy putting— tying the Christmas tree to the lamp post [laughs] and—and decorating it for Aunt Marty. So, because Uncle James died recently, Aunt Marty ran the grocery store, so… French Well, some of these stories—well, the one story that—that the Creative San—well, first I wanted to ask you a little bit about how you, um, came to be interviewed for the Creative Sanford play? Do you know the… Maliczowski Well, I have a friend who was involved in Creative Sanford during both of the productions they’ve made so far, and I went to school with her sister, and so she knew me, and she knew Mama, and she knew that she must have some kind of story that she can tell. And so she said, “We need to interview Luticia.” Lee They came and interviewed me. Maliczowski And yeah. So they came and started talking to her and that was the… Lee [inaudible] Maliczowski Particular story that they decided to go with. French So they didn’t know when they came about the rolling pin. They just… Maliczowski No. They just knew that she had things. All [laugh] Maliczowski And stories and that she had been here her whole life. That she—that she was born here and grew up here. And that’s why they wanted to know her view of—I mean, they asked her lots of questions about lots of things, and this was one of the things they felt that they could incorporate into the play. French Were you surprised that they chose to tell that story? Lee Yes. I was. [laughs] And it was just real neat. And they did it really good[sic]. Unidentified Yes. Lee And—and they—they told ‘em how Daddy did the rolling pin, you know. So we were given front row seats. Maliczowski Yeah. In the original, uh—the first play<a title="">[5]</a> one of mom’s best friends had a story in it. So they—they got so many stories that they couldn’t put them all in the first play. So they put ‘em in—they made a second play.<a title="">[6]</a> And they’re going to have a third one,<a title="">[7]</a> I think. Lee Yeah. French They said they were doing—still doing interviews for… Lee I think they’re doing something now. Maliczowski Yeah. They—they’re getting ready to. French And, um, so the other—I had a third [inaudible] just one other [inaudible] that I forgot in my notes here. Um, um, well, let me ask my—my colleagues here. Other questions that you would like to ask? No? So we, uh, are also interested in this as a family story. So I’ll just step off the couch here for a minute and just have—if I could ask the two of you to join your mom. And we’ll just talk about it as a—this is a family. Oh, wow. Dingle Just if you wanted to see some… French Fantastic. Maliczowski Here, Cath. you sit in the middle and you get to hold the rolling pin. Dingle It’s my rolling pin. French So if you wouldn’t mind introducing yourselves. Maliczowski I’m Linda Maliczowski. I’m the middle child [laughs]. Dingle I’m Cathy Dingle. I’m the oldest. Our brother’s not here. He’s the baby. French And so you, um, were you part of the—the original interview. I know if you were, because you had the connection to your friend. Maliczowski Right. And I live here. French And you live here. Maliczowski In Sanford. French And so, um, for you, um, this is a—a family heirloom. And, um, as you told the story, it—you—your memory of this is not just in a hope chest, but, as, uh something your mom used and… Maliczowski Oh yeah. Yeah. I mean we grew up with her doing that and eventually she told us all about it. But I mean, when someone would say, “Go get the rolling pin,” you knew what to get [laughs] and that was it. We had one rolling pin. Dingle And I really remember mostly biscuits. And pies. Maliczowski Biscuits and pies, because I learned how to do pies. Dingle Yes. And I learned to make a lot of biscuits with it so… French So for you, the memories attached to it are family memories? Not, not World War II, American Legion, home front, sacrifice. Dingle No. It’s Mama baking with it. Using it. Maliczowski She also made donuts. Dingle Donuts. That’s right. Maliczowski We had to roll them out and cut them with the little donut thing. Dingle Cut them and fry them. Yes. French Well, one of the things that that makes me think about is that people cooked like that all the time, and now it’s more rare[sic]. And you have a choice, whether you want to do that. It’s not part of our everyday lives to have a rolling pin but you still, uh—I’m sorry, but who’s getting the rolling pin? Maliczowski Cathy. Dingle Yeah. French You still cook and you… Maliczowski Oh, yes. French So does that make you feel connected in some way through the, you know—through the [inaudible]? Dingle Yes, because, you know, I remember Mama using it and I remember it, you know, in this house. And I remember it in our other house, and my granddaughters will help me use it. So, in fact, one asked me last week, she says, “Are we going to get to make Christmas cookies and use a rolling pin?” I said, “Yes. We are.” All [laugh] Dingle So they’re—they’re used to that. French And, um, do you—do you also have things like recipes and cookbooks, and things like that, that are… Dingle Oh, yes. French We have a student in our class who’s studying cookbooks. It’s actually a historical subject and an interesting one. Dingle Oh [laughs]. Maliczowski There’s so many. Dingle Oh, so many. Yes. French So, uh, one of the things we’ve been thinking about in our class is the connection between personal stories and personal history. And then there’s the community history— Sanford. And then there’s national and world history. And I think that’s what’s unique about this object is that it connects all of them, you know? Maliczowski Yeah. Mmhmm. French So we really thank you so much for sharing that story with us, and sharing your time with us. The only—the other thing is if, if it would be okay with you for us to take still photographs of some of these objects, uh, for inclusion in the exhibit. Maliczowski Sure. French That would be wonderful. Thank you. Dingle No problem. French Do you—do you want anything else that we should talk about on the—the… Orleman No. the recording—I think we’re… Dingle We’re good? Orleman Yeah. French Okay. Very good. Thank you so… One quick question, because we were talking about this before was the, um… Maliczowski Fireless cooker. Dingle Fireless cooker. French Fireless cooker, which is over there. But could you just tell us the story of the fireless… Lee My—my son, um—he, um, went online [clears throat] to find out more about it [clears throat]. And he said that in one of the—years ago, presidents had one in his[sic] house, but I don’t remember. Dingle But they—tell him where this one came from. Lee This one came from, um, Miss Bessie. Dingle Yup Lee And it—well, I already told you. Maliczowski Yeah, but they want to video it. They want to… All [laugh] Lee [laughs] I’m at it again. [clears throat] Well, in 1910, when my aunt came down, when she roomed in Miss Bessy’ house[?]. Her mother—[clears throat] excuse me. Her mother had a boarding house, and she did not cook on a Sunday, so she had the fireless cooker—that one. And, um, she would put the—the—it’s all there. Every piece. And the stones that had the thing to hook and put them in her fire. She had a wood stove. When they got hot, she’d put them in the fireless cooker. And then she would get her food hot on—in the pans, put them in, and close it up, and it would cook all night. And when she came home from church on Sunday, she’d open it up and she could serve it, but she didn’t have to cook. So that’s what—and my husband was fascinated with it. I said, “What do we do with it?” He says[sic], “I don’t care what we do with it. It’s a chest.” So it’s been in the living room in the old house. I told you we were in the French house years ago. French Yes. Lee And that’s where we raised the kids. And Mama was—was still here and my aunts. And, um, [clears throat] so, um—where was I? Dingle You had it in the old house and then you brought it here. Lee Yeah. I had it in the living room over there, and then I brought it here. So the fireless cooker’s always been in the living room. It’s been a piece to show people. Dingle But we never used it. Lee No. never used it. Maliczowski I plan on using it someday. Tell them about, um, how they used to use them during the war. Lee Oh, well, yeah. When Jimmy [Lee] researched it, he said they were used during the First World War—fireless cookers—mainly in tanks, so they could put the food in the cooker, and then they could go where they were going. And they would have the food. Maliczowski Mmhmm. Lee So, uh… Maliczowski We don’t know where they got this one, but we’re glad they did. All [laugh] Maliczowski So… Lee So, but that’s—and they had—had—in fact, I used to get the [inaudible] magazine. And somebody had put theirs in, only it was just a one, but they made one, and they made two, and ours is a three. French Great. Lee Three—whatever. Dingle Three pans [laughs]. Maliczowski Three pots. Dingle Three pots. Lee Yes.Three pots French And you mentioned the French house. Where—what was the address of the French house? Dingle 113 West Fifteenth Street. French Is it still there? Dingle It is. If you go up Oak Avenue—if you’re going up Oak, then you have to go around… Maliczowski You would run into the house. Dingle You would run into the house if you went straight up, but—yeah. Maliczowski My husband and I bought the house from Mom and Dad. And we lived there for quite a few years. We sold it when my son was about 13. French Oh, okay. Maliczowski And, it… Lee Just a minute. Maliczowski Yeah. Do you have the thing from when we sold it? French So this is one of the—the—the same French as French Ave[nue] and… Maliczowski Yeah. French Avenue was his brother. French Oh, okay. Maliczowski There was an A. J., um, Seth and A.J. French. And, um, the man who owned our house was the mayor. I think he was the second mayor. Dingle I think so. Maliczowski Mom might remember, but he was one of the first mayors of Sanford. French Oh, okay. Great. But this was the house that was built by… Maliczowski Right. And my grandmother was living here. French I see. Maliczowski And then when Mom and Dad—when they first got married, we lived over in Orlando and we moved over here when were seven and eight years old. And they found—that house was available so they bought that house. And we were there—the whole family—from when they bought it and then when I sold it, we were there for over 50 years. French Great. Wow. So, uh, this is great. I think, Andrew [Orleman], we can, uh—we’ll wrap up the… Maliczowski Oh, she’s got the, um—yeah. This isn’t what I was thinking but this is—it was on the Sanford our of home so… French Oh, okay. I went two years ago. I didn’t—okay. Lee That’s what it looks like now. French Okay. Lee But it looked like that [inaudible].

I’m at the Public History Center in Sanford, Florida. We’re here today with Marianne<a title="">[1]</a> Maples and the date is October 19th, 2013. Um, Mary[sic], could you just introduce yourself. um, just some background information, where you’re from, how long you’ve lived in the area—that kind of thing. Maples My name is Marilyn Maples, and been here over 20 years. I moved into my house in 1993. And when I purchased here, Sanford was on that turn. It was either gonna go good or it was gonna go bad. And, you know, there was that sharp[?] period of time where I would drive in and go, What was I thinking? Now I’m just elated to drive home every morning. I love my town. I love Sanford. And, uh, we’re truly a community. And there’s[sic] not many communities in the United States. You know, we are, you know—our neighbors during the hurricane, they were out in forces helping each other. So—and right now, we’re doing a benefit downtown because somebody has cancer, so we always come together as a family to help our community. Kelley Um, how did you become involved with, uh, the Celery Soup[: Florida’s Folk Life Play]project and Creative Sanford[, Inc.]? Maples Um, you know it was, because of the networking of people. You know, you know somebody that’s doing something, and they ask you to come out and be a part of it. And I was just asked by—I want to say Brian Casey asked me to become a part of it—you know, Creative Sanford. Kelley Did you know what it was when you, um… Maples Not really. Um, I did see the performance at, uh—uh, at the Wayne Densch [Performing Arts Center] when, uh, the group<a title="">[2]</a> from Georgia came down. Um, and I loved it. I thought it was great, and I was kind of well-hooked at that moment. Uh, but I saw myself as more of maybe a storyteller. You know, gathering lines or, uh, doing the background, ‘cause I produced over twenty shows at the Wayne Densch, so—and very little stage time. So with this play, it gives anybody the opportunity to be on stage, whereas you go to other theater groups and it’s very cliquish. So people never get the opportunity to go out on stage. Where this one, if you can fog up a mirror, you’re on stage. Kelley Um, what do you think is, um—what does being involved mean to you? Maples Um, it means, um—well, I’m preserving history. I’m—’m —I’m a storyteller. I’m preserving history. Um, and as showcasing what a great place Sanford is. And if you live here, you love it here. You know, there’s[sic] not many people living in Sanford, I would say, hate it. Kelley Um, what is your role in the current play? Maples Uh, I—I play Marlene Baggs of Baggs Produce, here on the corner of Twenty-Fifth [Street] and Sanford [Avenue]. And they’ve been there, uh, I wanna say since day one. And also, Arthurene—she was a tax collector in the Seminole County Courthouse back in the [19]50s. Kelley Um, well I have on here, “How do you get into character?” But I guess what we’re trying to get at is, um, what is your character’s role in Sanford history? Um, uh, what—why was their story included, I guess. Maples Uh… Kelley Do you think? Maples Um, well, I mean, everybody that’s lived here, you know, has a story—has a tell—has a story to tell. And, uh, the Baggs—we’ve got tons and tons. they were a colorful family. Um, you know particularly in the play, it’s called “rat-shot.” And this particular one is, uh—the mother got out the rat-shot gun, because her and the father were having an argument. So I mean, she was shooting in the store, things were exploding. Um, and then the previous play that I was in, I was Marlene Baggs, as well. And it—he was a worm farmer. People would stop, you know, on their way to go fish and he said, “Hey. I could sell worms.” Um, so Arthurene is maybe not as colorful. Um, you know, she was just a person that worked here and was a tax collector. Kelley Um, what do you see as Creative Sanford’s and the Celery Soup play—what do you see as sort of their role in preserving Sanford’s history? Maples Well, we’re preserving also Seminole County. Um, people are, you know, more attuned to be, you know—to learn quicker, I think, with the visual aid. And a lot of people come to the theater and go, “I didn’t know that about Sanford.” I—you know, it’s just, uh, um—they’re just—or they go, “I knew that building, but I didn’t understand why it was here.” You know, what it was used for. Also, um, on Sunday we’re gonna be hosting the fourth graders. We always host fourth graders with any of these shows, because it’s part of their, uh, curriculum to, you know—the history. Seminole history. Kelley Um, and then I guess finally, what do you see as the overall value of this project and your involvement, um, with the Creative Sanford group? Maples Um, well, my involvement, you know, goes, you know, far more than just being an actress. I’m also on the theater committee. I’m also the volunteer coordinator. Um, I’m also on the marketing—so it just brings people together to showcase your talents. And even to showcase talents you didn’t know you had. So it’s a, it’s an enrichment for anybody that comes out. And I encourage anybody to come out and be a part of it, because, like I said, if you can fog up a mirror, you’re an actress or an actor in the Celery Soup productions. French Um, uh, okay. This is [Dr.] Scot French. I’m also, uh, part of this project. Uh, I wondered if there ever were—if there have ever been any difficult moments in telling the story about Sanford’s history or Seminole County history? Maples Well, uh, in our original, uh, production, Touch and Go—uh, it was about a, uh, lost pilot who was between, uh, between worlds. He had already died, but he didn’t know he was dead. And, uh, so one of the scenes is the actual burial, you know, of a military, uh, personnel. And so they’re folding the flag very, uh, you know—it was very reverent. And the woman playin’ the role, Karen Casey—I mean, she would just weep. And everybody’s in there weeping with her, because it was, uh—also, we have a thing at the end called, “I Remember.” and it’s, uh, where we’re remembering people who had passed. And, uh, and I’ve had two actors tell me that it would remind them of their kin. Uh, don’t remember kid’s last name, but it reminded him of his mother passing. He came over there and was just weeping on my shoulder. And then another woman, um—she’s, um, Dodie, and she’s the Celery Queen. [clears throat] And, uh, her son had passed away, and it brought tears to her eyes, because, you know, it was that time of year when he had passed. And so it—it—it—it touches not only the cast, but, uh, the audience, as well. I’ve had audience come up to me and say, “I cried and I laughed.” I mean, this was just unbelievable. So there are difficult moments. French How about the fact that you’re dealing with, uh, a history that is, uh, in some cases[?] very painful? Things like segregation, and there’s even a scene with Dr. [George H.] Starke and the… Maples I tell ya, I weeped[sic] when I, you know, first saw it bein’ performed during rehearsals. Um, because I had no idea that a black person, uh—during that time, if they were injured, they could not go to the hospital in an ambulance. They either had to go by hearse or a family member. So, I mean, um, segregation is just—was just a bad thing, but it didn’t just happen here in Sanford. it was all over the United States. And it didn’t just happen in the South. it was also happening up North. Um, it was, uh—but not as bad, ‘cause, uh, just the population. But I think, you know, even today people—even in the last year—people tried to show us as a very racial town and we’re not. Um, I think we’ve really evolved. Uh, I know for, uh, one of our actresses, Nancy [Harris] Ford, uh, she grew up here. And she remembers Jim Crow law[s] at the Wayne Densch. Wayne Densch has a balcony, and that’s where black people had to sit. And, uh, the white people were sitting down beneath. And when I would volunteer at the Wayne Densch, I would have people come in and say, “I remember I had to sit upstairs. But we were throwing things on the white kids below.” [laughs] So, you know, it’s been a hairy moment for everybody. You know, it was a sad time in our history. But throughout the world, there’s[sic] been many sad things. But there’s always, uh, something that rises up good out of it. You know, like the Phoenix. It rises up and is reborn. French Um, is the cast and crew and everybody involved, are you sort of aware of the significance—the symbolic significance—of coming together like this and—and telling these stories and integrating the—these histories that maybe not—weren’t integrated, you know, in the past? There was one community and another community. You made a very self-conscious effort to sort of weave these stories together. Are you sort of—do you think there is an awareness about, among the cast and crew, that what you are doing has this… Maples Oh, yeah. I mean, really, this brings you, uh, in a place where you would meet people you would not normally meet. Just because of, you know, where you live or who you socialize with. And so—and because of this, I have met some of the most wonderful people and I call them, you know, dear friends, like Dr. Annye Refoe. She was in the original one, and, uh, it was one of, uh, her tales of generations, where she was outlining, uh, you know, her roots. From Africa to Barbados to, you know, all the way up to Sanford. And she was the first one from her generation to get an, uh, education and a Doctor’s Degree. When I saw Annye on stage performing it, you know, during rehearsals, I fell in love with her. I said, “I want to be just like this woman.” So, yeah. I mean, would I have met her in any other place? No. So it’s really good. French And is there anything else that you would like to share with us or with anybody who is interested in this project? Just some final words or anything? Maples Well, you know, just as we were joking about, you know, there’s so much money to be made in history. You know, the theater suffers, as well. And so I was looking for, you know, people to come and see the play. and we’re also looking for people who want to sponsor it. You know, ‘cause, uh, history is so important. And particularly oral history. You know, I mean, I’m going to look back at this as cave drawings. You know, they had a story to tell. they told it on the walls. So this is, you know—this is our version of cave, uh, drawing. We’re telling the story. Preserving history. French Uh, great. Thank you. Kelley Uh, just to clarify. I believe in the introduction I said her name was… Maples Was Mary. It’s Marilyn. Kelley Marilyn. Maples You can call me Marley. you can call me Marilyn. You know, call me anything, but don’t call me late for dinner [laughs]. Kelley Marilyn Maples is the subject of this interview. Thank you. Maples Alright.

High schools--Florida Schools Students--Florida Classrooms Description A classroom at Sanford High School's second campusl, located at the corner of East Ninth Street and South Palmetto Avenue in Sanford, Florida. Although the image is undated, it was likely taken sometime between 1911 and 1927. The backside of the photograph includes a postal stamp with the name of R. W. Deane, most likely the printer, and his/her address: 810 East Twenty-Fifth Street. Sanford High School was originally established at 301 West Seventh Street in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

High schools--Florida Schools Students--Florida Description Five female students at Sanford High School's second campus, located at the corner of East Ninth Street and South Palmetto Avenue in Sanford, Florida, in 1911. The students photographed, from left to right, are: Ruth Mettinger, Gladys Gardner, Carrie Lovell, Martha Fox, and Marian Whiteman. Sanford High School was originally established at 301 West Seventh Street in 1902. The building was designed by W. G. Talley in the Romanesque revival style. Due to an increasing student population, a new school building was constructed on Sanford Avenue in 1911. The original building on Seventh Street served as Westside Grammar Elementary School, which was later renamed Sanford Grammar School. In 1984, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and converted into the Student Museum. The building reopened as the University of Central Florida's Public History Center in 2012. In 1927, a high school campus was designed by Elton J. Moughton in the Mediterranean revival style and constructed at 1700 French Avenue. The school reopened on January 10 and was renamed Seminole High School. In 1960, the high school moved to a new campus at 2701 Ridgewood Avenue and the former building on French Avenue was converted to Sanford Junior High School, which was later renamed Sanford Middle School. The old building was demolished in the summer of 1991 and replaced by a $5.77 million school complex. As of 2013, Seminole High School offers various Advanced Placement courses, the Academy for Health Careers, and the International Baccalaureate Programme for students.

Description Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Seminole County, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around. Mosquito County, a massive county south of St. Johns County that consisted of much of Central Florida was established in 1824. In 1845, Mosquito County was renamed Orange County when Florida earned statehood. This new county included present-day Osceola County, Seminole County, Lake County, and Volusia County. Orange County was named so for the area's major fruit crop: oranges. The area was devastated by a freeze during the winter of 1895-1896, which allowed for subsequent land speculators to initiate a land boom in Florida, with Orlando becoming a "boom town." Seminole County separated from Orange on April 25, 1913, and was named for the Seminole tribes that originally inhabited the area. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes. By the 1920s, citizens in Seminole County, particularly in Sanford, soon shifted their interests in making the area a tourist destination.

The U.S. Census of Agriculture identified small grains, hay, corn, cotton, sugarcane, tobacco, Irish potatoes, and sweet potatoes and yams as grain crops. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes. By the 1920s, citizens in Seminole County, particularly in Sanford, soon shifted their interests in making the area a tourist destination.

Description Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Seminole County, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around. Mosquito County, a massive county south of St. Johns County that consisted of much of Central Florida was established in 1824. In 1845, Mosquito County was renamed Orange County when Florida earned statehood. This new county included present-day Osceola County, Seminole County, Lake County, and Volusia County. Orange County was named so for the area's major fruit crop: oranges. The area was devastated by a freeze during the winter of 1895-1896, which allowed for subsequent land speculators to initiate a land boom in Florida, with Orlando becoming a "boom town." Seminole County separated from Orange on April 25, 1913, and was named for the Seminole tribes that originally inhabited the area. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes. By the 1920s, citizens in Seminole County, particularly in Sanford, soon shifted their interests in making the area a tourist destination.

Description Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Seminole County, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around. Mosquito County, a massive county south of St. Johns County that consisted of much of Central Florida was established in 1824. In 1845, Mosquito County was renamed Orange County when Florida earned statehood. This new county included present-day Osceola County, Seminole County, Lake County, and Volusia County. Orange County was named so for the area's major fruit crop: oranges. The area was devastated by a freeze during the winter of 1895-1896, which allowed for subsequent land speculators to initiate a land boom in Florida, with Orlando becoming a "boom town." Seminole County separated from Orange on April 25, 1913, and was named for the Seminole tribes that originally inhabited the area. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes.

Agriculture--Florida Vegetables--Florida Vegetable industry Fruits Fruit industry--Florida Description A table representing the acreage of principle crops in Seminole County, Florida, during 1924. Crops such as corn, velvet beans, and dry edible beans were listed as grain and forage crops. Tame grasses and annual legumes were categorized as hay crops. Crops such as cotton, sugar cane, potatoes, and strawberries were listed as miscellaneous. Vegetables grown for sale included cabbages, melons, lettuce, onions, corn, and tomatoes. All of the fruits and nuts were listed under orchard fruits and nuts. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes. By the 1920s, citizens in Seminole County, particularly in Sanford, soon shifted their interests in making the area a tourist destination. This trend is made apparent in the total value of principle crops listed by the U.S. Census of Agriculture in 1924. In 1919, principle crops were valued at $186,229 in comparison to drop in value in 1924 to $22,509 for the same identified crops. Type Dataset Source Original table by Laura Cepero, July 21, 2011.

Mosquito County, a massive county south of St. Johns County that consisted of much of Central Florida was established in 1824.

Orange County was named so for the area's major fruit crop: oranges. The area was devastated by a freeze during the winter of 1895-1896, which allowed for subsequent land speculators to initiate a land boom in Florida, with Orlando becoming a "boom town."

In 1926, Orange County was hit by a hurricane and then by the stock market crash and Great Depression beginning in 1929. Central Florida recovered in the late 1930s and experienced steady growth until 1967. In 1971, Walt Disney World was completed, signaling the beginning of the transformation of the Greater Orlando area into one of the world's major tourist destinations. The citrus industry in the county peaked in the early 1970s, but many groves were destroyed by several freezes during the early 1980s.

Seminole County (Fla.) Agriculture--Florida Vegetables--Florida Vegetable industry Fruits Fruit industry--Florida Description A table representing farm statistics in Orange County, Florida, during 1904. Statistics in the table identify various products produced in the county, how many acres each crop occupied, production number of each crop, and the dollar value of each crop. The U.S. Census of Agriculture identified upland and Sea Island cotton, corn, sweet potatoes, rice, sugarcane and syrup, peas, and native grass and natal grass hay as field crops. Mosquito County, a massive county south of St. Johns County that consisted of much of Central Florida, was established in 1824. In 1845, Mosquito County was renamed Orange County when Florida earned statehood. This new county included present-day Osceola, Seminole, Lake, and Volusia counties. Orange County was named so for the area's major fruit crop: oranges. The area was devastated by a freeze during the winter of 1895-1896, which allowed for subsequent land speculators to initiate a land boom in Florida, with Orlando becoming a "boom town." Seminole County separated from Orange on April 25, 1913 and was named for the Seminole tribes that originally inhabited the area. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes. By the 1920s, citizens in Seminole County, particularly in Sanford, soon shifted their interests in making the area a tourist destination.

Agriculture--Florida Crops--United States Vegetables--Florida Vegetable industry Description Bar chart representing crop acreage for Seminole County from 1919 to 1949. Corn was often planted in the summer after the celery fields were harvested. Because the fields still contained fertilizer from the previous celery production, there was often a high yield of corn in Seminole County. In 1926, it was reported that most of the corn produced in Seminole County was a cross between Hasting Prolific and Cuban flint, a hardy type resistant to corn weevils. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes. By the 1920s, citizens in Seminole County, particularly in Sanford, soon shifted their interests in making the area a tourist destination.

Description Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Seminole County, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around. Mosquito County, a massive county south of St. Johns County that consisted of much of Central Florida was established in 1824. In 1845, Mosquito County was renamed Orange County when Florida earned statehood. This new county included present-day Osceola County, Seminole County, Lake County, and Volusia County. Orange County was named so for the area's major fruit crop: oranges. The area was devastated by a freeze during the winter of 1895-1896, which allowed for subsequent land speculators to initiate a land boom in Florida, with Orlando becoming a "boom town." Seminole County separated from Orange on April 25, 1913, and was named for the Seminole tribes that originally inhabited the area. In the early-1900s, Seminole County was known for its agricultural development and close proximity to shipping lanes. By the 1920s, citizens in Seminole County, particularly in Sanford, soon shifted their interests in making the area a tourist destination.

Description Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Goldsboro, an historic African-American community in Sanford, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around. On December 1, 1891, William Clark, an African-American store owner and businessman, organized 19 other black registered voters to incorporate the town of Goldsboro, which was the second African-American city to be incorporated in Florida. Goldsboro's early economy was driven by rail yards, fields, groves, ice houses, and produce houses. A year after its incorporation, Goldsboro opened a school led by Katie Stubbins. Goldsboro, which is located near Sanford, prevented that city from expanding further west. Instead, the City of Sanford passed a resolution to absorb Goldsboro, despite opposition from the latter town's officials. Nonetheless, the Florida State Legislated revoked Goldsboro's incorporation to allow its absorption into Sanford on April 6, 1911. The identity of Goldsboro began to erode as the City of Sanford renamed several of its historical streets. In 2007, Goldsboro was included in plans for Sanford's revitalization efforts. In 2011, the Goldsboro Historical Museum was opened in the town at the site of its original post office.

Title Marie Jones Francis Collection Alternative Title Francis Collection Subject Midwives, African American Midwives--Florida Midwifery--United States Georgetown (Sanford, Fla.) Sanford (Fla.) African Americans--Florida--Sanford Description Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the life and work of Marie Jones Francis. Francis, the "midwife of Sanford," lived at 621 East Sixth Street in Sanford, Florida. Francis, the "midwife of Sanford," left behind a successful hotel and restaurant she owned in Sarasota in 1942 to return to Sanford and become a midwife. World War II caused a shortage in doctors and nurses, so Florida's Children's Bureau sent Francis to Florida A & M to acquire her practical nursing license in 1945. She specialized in premature babies and returned to Sanford to aid her mother, Carrie Jones, at Fernald-Laughton Memorial Hospital before they opened the ward in their home. "When her health starting failing," she recollects in a newspaper article, "I took over." Francis converted her house at 621 East Sixth Street to also serve as a maternity ward, where she delivered over 40,000 babies over her 32 year career. She became a midwife in the same vein as her mother, Carrie Jones, and together they ran the Jones-Francis Maternity Hall in Georgetown. Francis served her community in several ways. She delivered babies for both white and black families from Seminole County, primarily patrons who either preferred natural births or could not afford deliveries at a hospital. In the 1950s, it cost $70 to stay nine days where soon-to-be mothers were taken care of. Francis was assisted by her sister, Annie Walker, who did the cooking. The house and ward also served as a school, where Marie Francis taught nurses the art of midwifery. Nurses would come from across the state to learn how to delivery infants naturally. A heavy burden on a single working mother, Marie Francis had three daughters, Cassandra Clayton, Daphne Humphrey, and Barbara Torre. Clayton and Humphrey became school teachers and Torre became a purchaser at Seminole Memorial Hospital. Contributor Firpo, Julio R.

Description Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Goldsboro, an historic African-American community in Sanford, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around. On December 1, 1891, William Clark, an African-American store owner and businessman, organized 19 other black registered voters to incorporate the town of Goldsboro, which was the second African-American city to be incorporated in Florida. Goldsboro's early economy was driven by rail yards, fields, groves, ice houses, and produce houses. A year after its incorporation, Goldsboro opened a school led by Katie Stubbins. Goldsboro, which is located near Sanford, prevented that city from expanding further west. Instead, the City of Sanford passed a resolution to absorb Goldsboro, despite opposition from the latter town's officials. Nonetheless, the Florida State Legislated revoked Goldsboro's incorporation to allow its absorption into Sanford on April 6, 1911. The identity of Goldsboro began to erode as the City of Sanford renamed several of its historical streets. In 2007, Goldsboro was included in plans for Sanford's revitalization efforts. In 2011, the Goldsboro Historical Museum was opened in the town at the site of its original post office.

Description The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders.

Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated April 28, 1884. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane made reference to the transfer of 250 company shares to Mr. I. I. Foulkrod. The shares, forwarded at Sanford's request, were valued at £20 each for a total value of £5,000. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s.

Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (August 27, 1884) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (August 27, 1884) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated August 27, 1884. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane discussed several possibilities for the usage of company profits earned during the fiscal year ending on June 30, 1884. Macfarlane suggested either directing half of the profits to the reduction of company property values but with no distribution of dividends, or directing a quarter of profits to the reduction of property values, with shareholders receiving a 5% dividend for the year. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (October 3, 1884) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (October 3, 1884) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Polk County (Fla.) Sumter County (Fla.) Hernando County (Fla.) Brevard County (Fla.) Volusia County (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated October 3, 1884. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane discussed the minutes from the previous meeting of the board of directors. Sanford, staying in Belgium at the time, was unable to attend. Perhaps the most important board decision, conveyed by Macfarlane, was the transfer of the power to sign deeds. The board decided that it was in the company's best interest to transfer this power from Henry Sanford to E. R. Trafford and William Beardall. Trafford was the company's agent based in Sanford, Florida, while Beardall was sent to Sanford from London to serve as the Assistant Manager in the FLCC's Sanford office. The action, taken by the board, reflected the strained relations between Henry Sanford and his London-based partners. It represented an effort to limit the powers and influence of Henry Sanford in company decision-making and instead to reallocate these powers to two company-appointed agents. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (December 23, 1884) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (December 23, 1884) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated December 23, 1884. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane described in detail the minutes of the board of directors meeting held the day prior. In discussing the various topics of importance, Macfarlane conveyed the strained relationship between the board of directors and Henry Sanford. In particular, the letter illustrated the mutual misunderstandings and differences of opinion held by Sanford and the London-based investors. On page two, when discussing the financial state of the company, Macfarlane noted that "the Directors desire me to express their regret that you have not indicated to them some practical means of raising money to meet the above requirements [and] the Debentures shortly falling due." The letter reflected the board's lack of trust in the financial strategies advocated by Sanford. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income.

Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated December 29, 1884.

Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane discussed various aspects of the company's financial state, noting disappointment in lower-than-expected land sales in Florida. At one point, Macfarlane expressed concern that "[t]he cash on hand in Florida, in the office [and] banks, at the end of November amounted to less than £400 not more than required for the business." The letter conveyed the often tenuous nature of the company's efforts to turn a profit in Florida.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (January 8, 1885) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (January 8, 1885) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated January 8, 1885. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane referenced the company efforts to raise a final £3,000 of a needed £5,000 to complete a land acquisition deal in Florida, a deal advanced and encouraged by Henry Sanford. Macfarlane noted that the company's bank, Barclay & Company, refused to provide an advance of funds without a joint guarantee from all of the members of the company's board. Macfarlane noted that some of the board members had objections to this requirement, reflecting a gulf between business strategies endorsed by Sanford and his fellow board members. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders. Type Text Source Original letter from A. W.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (January 20, 1885) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (January 20, 1885) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description Letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated January 20, 1885. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane discussed several recent decisions taken by the board of directors of the FLCC. He explained how the local FLCC agent based in Sanford, Florida, E. R. Trafford, was in the process of purchasing tracts of land on behalf of the company, adding that $15,000 had been raised to facilitate Trafford's purchase. The money raised for the land purchase was loaned from the London-based bank Barclay & Company. Macfarlane noted that, in order to obtain the money, the company needed to offer the bank securities in the form of land notes valued at twice the amount of the loan requested. Macfarlane deemed it necessary to note that, following the most recent loan, the company was indebted to the bank in the amount of £5,144.13, of which £2,000 would be due by April 1885. Macfarlane stated that, with the bank loan and company debentures combined, the FLCC had nearly £30,000 due by the end of the fiscal year in early July. Reflecting the often tenuous nature of the company's finances, Macfarlane added that "[t]he [Florida] agent in his report last June estimated remittances at £14,000 of which as yet only £2,200 has been received." The secretary concluded the matter by stating that "[t]he urgency of making prompt financial arrangements has in no way been relieved and I am directed again to state that the Directors consider they are incurring grave responsibility by having this question open." The stringent financial guaranties needed by the company's bank for further loans are significant. The bank's steep terms possibly reflect both the uncertainty of profitability associated with Florida land sales as well as the uncertain viability of the FLCC. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors.

Shelton (January 21, 1885) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Shelton (January 21, 1885) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description Letter from A. W. Macfarlane to F. R. Shelton dated January 21, 1885. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane informs Shelton, a Philadelphia-based lawyer and banker at Manayunk Bank, that he had been elected to the board of directors. Macfarlane reminded Shelton that the FLCC had some $75,000 in land notes housed at the Manayunk Bank and he expressed hope to Shelton that "with your large banking connections, you may be able to negotiate so as to meet the present requirements of the Company." Shelton's addition to the board of directors was a move prompted by Henry Shelton Sanford and the board of director's acquiescence on the matter was done in part in an effort to placate Sanford. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders. Type Text Source Original letter from A. W. Macfarlane to F. R.

Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane acknowledged receipt of a letter sent by Sanford while also relaying relevant information sent to the company's main office from its Florida-based representative, E. R. Trafford. In particular, Macfarlane noted that, in an earlier letter, Trafford cited his earlier request for $15,000 needed for further land acquisition. In his message to Sanford, Macfarlane made clear that Trafford had not sent any confirmation of the finalized land purchase.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (February 3, 1885) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (February 3, 1885) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated January 24, 1885. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane explained to Sanford that the board of directors had rejected a scheme proposed by Sanford as a means to paying company debts. Additionally, Macfarlane offered a brief overview of the company's financial state, noting that the land sales from the prior six-month period amounted to $24,798—over $4,000 more than the same period from a year earlier. Despite this moderate success, Macfarlane bemoaned that "the sales for the last three months are disappointingly small amounting to only some $3,000," an occurrence he deemed symptomatic of a "general stagnation of business in the state." The letter reflected the differing and often opposing viewpoints of Sanford and his fellow board members as well as the limited financial successes of the company in the mid-to-late 1880s. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders. Type Text Source Original letter from A. W.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (February 21, 1885) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (February 21, 1885) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated February 21, 1885. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane relayed reports to Sanford sent by the FLCC's local agent in Florida, E. R. Trafford. At the time, Sanford was staying in the German capital of Berlin, presumably due to his participation in the Berlin Conference of 1884-1885 regarding European trade and colonization in Africa. Macfarlane conveyed the small amount of sales achieved in recent months $1980 for the month of December 1884 and only $434.80 for the entire month of January. He noted that the company's agent believed that the fall in company sales was due in part to a general slowing of business, noting that "[e]everything throughout not only the state but the country is dull." The agent also blamed the "New Orleans Exposition [that] seems to have taken the visitors from Florida this winter." The agent was referencing the World's Fair of 1884-1885, based in New Orleans, Louisiana. The report relayed by Macfarlane reflected the challenges of turning a profit from the company's Florida investments.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (May 12, 1885) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (May 12, 1885) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated May 12, 1885. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. Based on this letter, it appears that Sanford had previously proposed the construction of a tramway light railway within the company's property in Florida. Macfarlane informed Sanford that the matter had not yet been discussed among board members and that the subject would be discussed at a later date. Macfarlane added that the previous meeting had been dedicated to the reviewing of company accounts. Subsequent correspondence from Macfarlane, resumed in September 1885, did not make further reference to the proposed tramway and it is unclear if the idea was ever pursued. However, based on the strained relationship between Sanford and the other company board members, as well as their general mistrust of Sanford's business proposals, it is possible that the board purposefully delayed discussing the matter with the intent of preventing it from materializing. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders. Type Text Source Original letter from A. W.

Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated September 29, 1885.

Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. Attached to this letter is a statement listing the various acreage and book values of the company's property in Florida. The statement noted that as of September 1885 the company owned some 79,632.72 acres valued collectively at £84,262.12. At the time, the company owned land scattered throughout Florida in Alachua, Brevard, Hernando, Hillsboro, Manatee, Marion, Monroe, Orange, Polk, Sumter, and Volusia counties. It also owned settlements named Middleground and Anclote. Lastly, the company owned large tracts of land, including the Powell Grant and Sanford Grant, as well as the entire town of Sanford. At the time, the largest single property was the Sanford Grant at 7,813.42 acres. The county with the most scattered land held by the company was Polk County at 21,661.84 acres. The county with the smallest amount of land owned by the company was Volusia County, with only 79.91 acres.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (October 2, 1885) Alternative Title Letter and Statement from Macfarlane to Sanford (October 2, 1885) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated October 2, 1885. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. Attached to this letter was a small table listing the monetary amount of the company's total sales, property accounts, town improvements, as well as a listing of profit and loss for the years from 1881 to 1885. Macfarlane noted that the company's earnings from sales were appropriated, applying credit to the property accounts to cover the cost of sale as well as an additional quarter of the profit. The remaining balance was then distributed to the shareholders as dividends. Based on the chart, it appears that between 1881 and 1885 the company earned £51,492, of which £28,214 was distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders. Type Text Source Original letter and statement from A. W.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (November 16, 1886) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (November 16, 1886) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Sanford (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated November 16, 1886. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane discussed several changing circumstances related to the company. First, he acknowledged that Henry Sanford would travel to America in order "to supervise the Company's affairs in Florida." This development was the result of several years of meager profits deemed "too small a scale to cover expenses [and] interest." As Macfarlane expressed to Sanford, "it is hoped that you may be able to infuse more life into the business." The letter also explained and justified the decision to name William Beardall as the successor to E. R. Trafford as the company's chief agent in Florida. Though Beardall "lacked some essentials for actively pushing sales," his lengthy tenure with the company and prior employment in Sir William MacKinnon's operations in East Africa had rendered him a "steady [and] trustworthy" employee in the eyes of the company. The letter reflected the company's ongoing challenges in finding steady and robust means of profit in its efforts to sell Florida land. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s.

Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford (November 20, 1886) Alternative Title Letter from Macfarlane to Sanford (November 20, 1886) Subject Sanford, Henry Shelton, 1823-1891 Investments, British--United States Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated November 20, 1886. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. This letter concerned a request made previously by Sanford for a "stamped transfer form" meant for the transfer of shares and debentures. According to the letter, Macfarlane had included a set of stamps, which acted as an obligatory duty on the transfer of shares. The stamps, he noted, "can be affixed to a transfer deed after execution." It is unclear what shares or debentures Sanford intended to transfer. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders. Type Text Source Original letter from A. W.

Polk County (Fla.) Description A letter from A. W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated December 9, 1886. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane acknowledged confirmation of an earlier telegram he sent to Henry Sanford. According to Macfarlane, the earlier telegram noted that William Beardall, the FLCC's local agent based in Sanford, Florida, was offered $40,000 for 2,600 acres and a township in Polk County. The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently.

In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County. Almost from the outset, there was serious friction between the British board members and Henry Sanford. Disagreements erupted over business strategy, as Sanford frequently proposed initiatives deemed too bold for the cautious British investors. From 1882 to 1892, the company saw steady, if meager, profits. Most of its income came from the sale of lots in the city of Sanford. From 1885 until 1890, the company, while remaining solvent, continued to see declining profits. From 1886 to 1890, the profits were so modest that the company declined to pay dividends on its yearly profits. Needed improvements and developments in the city of Sanford during the late 1880s sapped much of the company's income. Following Henry Sanford's death in 1891, many of the investors lost the motivation to continue. On September 15, 1892, the various directors acted to dissolve the company. Its assets, including roughly 65,000 acres of Florida land, were divided among shareholders. Type Text Source Original letter from A. W.

Description The Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) was a joint-stock venture that invested in Florida land development and sales in the 1880s and early 1890s. The company was formed by Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) with help from a group of British investors. The original impetus for the company's formation was Sanford's inability to continue his land acquisition and development efforts in Florida independently. In 1879, faced with financial difficulties, Sanford turned to a trusted associate in the United Kingdom, a Scottish industrialist named Sir William Mackinnon (1823-1893), to help him attract investors. The formation of the company was in large part due to the efforts of MacKinnon, whose reputation and influence helped bring investors on board. Located at 13 Austin Friars, the company was officially registered in London on June 10, 1880. With the formation of the FLCC, all of Henry Sanford's Florida properties were transferred to the company in exchange for a £10,000 cash payment and another £50,000 in company stock. The one-time cash payment was a needed reprieve for Sanford, who faced financial difficulties by the end of the 1870s. The board of directors included Mackinnon, as well as W. C. Gray and Edwyn Sandys Dawes, partners in Gray-Dawes and Company, a London-based banking and investment house. Other directors included Alexander Fraser, Anthony Norris, George A. Thomson, and Eli Lee. Sanford was named President and Chairman of the Board. In 1880, the company owned 26,000 acres scattered across Florida, including in the cities of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Sanford, as well as in Alachua County and Marion County.

W. Macfarlane to Henry Shelton Sanford dated December 16, 1886. Macfarlane was the secretary for the Florida Land and Colonization Company (FLCC) from 1884 until its dissolution in 1892. Presumably, he worked in the company's main office, located at 13 Austin Friars in the business district of London, United Kingdom. In this letter, Macfarlane acknowledged receipt and forwarding of newspaper clippings sent by Henry Sanford and intended for Sir William Mackinnon. Macfarlane also offered a brief update of various remittances for the company's loans.

Title Okay for McCoy Expected: Port of Entry Status Close Description A newspaper article about the development of McCoy Air Force Base. After the McCoy AFB was fully transitioned from military to civilian use, it still lacked the status of an international port of entry. As a result, international tourists had to use other airports in Florida, such as Tampa and Miami. Due to the growth of attractions like Disney World, Central Florida was quickly developing a larger tourism industry. It was important that the airport was able to cater to international traffic so that the industry could continue to grow more effectively. Congressman Lou Frey, Jr. (1934-2019) petitioned the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury to give special consideration to the City of Orlando's bid to change the Jetport's status and this measure was successful.

Transcript Okay for McCoy Expected Port Of Entry Status Close Orlando Jetport at McCoy could become an international port of entry within three months if the U. S. Treasury Department gives the city’s application for a U. S. customs office quick approval as expected, Orlando City Atty. Egerton K. van den Berg said Tuesday. U. S. Rep. Louis Frey Jr., R-Winter Park, said Tuesday in Winter Park he expects Treasury Secretary William Simon to grant approval by Sept. 1. Van den Berg said once the Treasury Department gives the nod, a temporary facility could be opened within a month to begin processing foreign visitors. A permanent International Arrivals Building is expected to take about six months to build, the city attorney said. Orlando’s quest for a customs office has the blessings of district and regional customs officials in Tampa and Miami respectively. It has been sent to Washington for final approval. Jack Gillooly, project manager for jetport development, said Tampa customs officials are so convinced the city’s application will be approved, they sent an assistant district director to meet with him Tuesday to discuss which portion of the airfield would be designed the “port of entry” section. Orlando has been trying for 10 years to be declared a port of entry. With the opening of Walt Disney World and other attractions, the need became acute because of the volume of foreign tourists. Foreign visitors must now fly to international airports such as Miami, Tampa or New York to clear customs. They then transfer to a domestic flight to Orlando. With an international airport, foreign flights would come directly to Orlando. Van den Berg said that probably only foreign charter flights would land here initially because “that’s where the demand is.” Regularly scheduled foreign flights --which must be approved by the Civil Aeronautics Board --are “way in the distance,” after a demand for them builds, van den Berg said. The aeronautics board does not approve charter flights. The city and Page Airways of Florida Inc., which has the jetport fuel sales and aircraft service lease, have entered into a partnership to build the International Arrivals Building. The city would put up $350,000 with Page supplying $450,000, said John Meacham, Orlando aviation director. MEACHAM said no decision has been made whether the word international would be added to the jetport’s name once the port of entry status is achieved. Van den Berg said the city will apply for its share of the arrivals building under the amended Airport and Airways Development Act signed Tuesday by President Ford.

Title Letter Template from Representative Louis Frey, Jr., 1972 Description A draft of a stock response letter from U.S. Representative Louis Frey, Jr. (1934-2019) to constituents who expressed their opinion that Brevard County, Florida, needed a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) hospital. Re. Lou Frey served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1969 to 1979. He was on several committees during his time in office, including the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control and the Science and Technology Committee. He was also the chairman of the Young Republicans of Florida. During his tenure, Central Florida had a very large veteran population but insufficient VA medical facilities. For example, the closest VA hospital to Brevard County was in St. Petersburg. To more sufficiently care for the needs of veterans in his district, Rep. Frey introduced multiple bills to Congress that would establish a VA hospital in Brevard County, although none of his bills were passed.

Transcript Verterans’ , 1972 Dear : Many thanks for your recent correspondence in regard to your interest in obtaining a veterans’ hospotal in Brevard County. Your interest in this matter is appreciated. I have recently introduced legislation to establish such a hospital in Brevard. As you know, in Brevard there are over 40,000 veterans which doesn’t include veterns in nearby counties, who must travel at least 161 miles to the nearest VA hospital in St. Petersberg. There is an estimated 15,000 veterans in Brevard County now traveling great distances to the four VA hospitals in Florida. Establishment of a VA hospital in Brevard would certainly alleviate this problem. My bill would establish a 500 bed veterans’ hospital which could be staffed by the many qualified professional people available in Brevard. There are also at least five construction sites available for this facility at no cost to the Government. You can be sure I will be working toward and doing all I can to urge prompt consideration of this bill. Thanks again for writing and sharing your comments with me. If I can be of any assistance to you, please let me know. Most sincerely, Lou Frey, Jr. LFJr/kah Alternative Title Letter Template from Rep.

Hannah of the Brevard County Planning Department. As Brevard County, Florida, began to experience rapid growth, new studies were proposed in order to figure out how best to adjust to accommodate this growth. The growth of the county was partially due to the expanding tourism industry in Central Florida that was the result of the development of attractions like Walt Disney World. Hannah proposed to investigate the development of analysis techniques for utilization of remote sensing data in urban and regional planning. The investigation would include the east Central Florida region of Brevard County, Indian River County, Lake County, Orange County, Osceola County, and Seminoles County. The data would be presented in reconstituted color infrared and computer-compatible digital magnetic tape formats.

Title Year End Report from Congressman Lou Frey, Jr. Newsletter, December 1976 Description Two pages from the Year End Report from Congressman Lou Frey, Jr. newsletter mailed to citizens of the 9th Congressional District of Florida, represented by Congressman Louis "Lou" Frey, Jr. (1934-2019), who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1969 to 1979. He was on several committees during his time in office, including the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control and the Science and Technology Committee. He was also the chairman of the Young Republicans of Florida. In the first article, which is continued on both pages, Representative Frey discusses the legislative accomplishments that he made in the 94th Congress. These include an amendment to the McNamara-O'Hara Service Contract Act (SCA) of 1965; the creation of a Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control in the House of Representatives; provisions for long-term financing for public broadcasting, the establishment of a U.S. Metric Board; the authorization from the Energy Research and Development Administration (ERDA) for a federal program for research and development related to electric vehicle technologies; the extension of the Educational Broadcasting Facilities Program to include the distribution of information on health, education, and social services; the authorization of a rape prevention and control program in Community Health Centers, the establishment of science and technology policy. Frey also cites legislation that was passed, but compromised in committee: the extension of veterans education benefits, provisions for an unrestricted pension for World War I veterans and their widows, and the removal of the outside earnings limitation on Social Security recipients. He also discusses Congress' clash with the Executive Branch over spending bills and top priorities for the 94th Congress. The second article discusses the Veteran's Administration (VA) site evaluation of existing medical facilities for veterans in Orlando. The article also addresses public requests for an outpatient clinic for veterans in Brevard County. In the third article, Frey announces the final order to make Orlando one of the two international airport entry points in Central Florida. The Orlando Jetport was expected benefit from gaining the status as an international port of entry, which would allow international travelers, especially tourists, to arrive directly to the area. Finally, Congressman Frey discusses his appointment to the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control in the fourth article. According to Frey, the committee determined that federal efforts to prevent and control drug abuse has not been effective. As a result, the committee drafted a bill advocating for mandatory sentences for drug-related offenses and no opportunities for parole, bond, or speedy trials for non-addict drug dealers.

Transcript 94th Congress (continued) and gift taxes. Legislation which I co-sponsored, brings estate tax exemptions more into line with current property values enabling heirs to maintain family businesses and farms. While Congress clashed with the Executive over every major bill, some compromises did emerge. The public works jobs program, for example, was vetoed twice and rewritten three times. While less ambitious than the first version, the final legislation will provide 300,000 jobs. Congress also extended general revenue sharing, providing $25.6 billion in federal revenues through September 30, 1980. Other top-priority legislation completed by the Congress included: the end of the oil depletion allowance; the beginnings of adequate funding for development of alternate energy sources; a defense budget the military and Congress can live with; a seven percent increase in veterans pensions and a temporary increase in unemployment compensation taxes on employers. Welfare reform, revision of the food stamp program, catastrophic health insurance, clean air legislation and decontrol of natural gas prices remain top priorities for the 95th Congress. We’re looking forward to many new projects--and re-working some old ones during the coming year: legislation including professionals under the Service Contract Act; establishing a National Veterans Cemetery in Central or East Central Florida; removing permanently the time limitation for veterans to complete their education; doing away with the income earnings limitation on senior citizens eligible for social security; and protection for individuals purchasing condominiums. A capsulization of the 94th congress in chart form appears on the next page--and we do mean capsule! For more information on any of these subjects just write my office. Jetport International port of entry status for the Orlando Jetport became a reality this Fall. OnOctober 20, the Secretary of Treasury signed the final orders make Orlando one of the two international entry points in Central Florida. The new status, a victory after years of hard work, will bring international passengers directly to Central Florida. From there the tourists will be able to see our attractions in Orlando and visit Brevard County to tour Cape Canaveral and stay on the coast. Projections by local officials show an estimated 5 million pounds of export cargo and a third of a million international passengers enplaning in Orlando by 1980. Initially, the customs office at McCoy Jetport will employ part 12 part time baggage/cargo inspectors in addition to a Port Director, an Inspector and an Inspectional Aide. The number of employment opportunities will increase as the work load at the customs office increases. Tampa, an international port of entry since 1913, now employs almost 40 full time customs officials. So, while the process was long and often frustrating, pushing for the international status was certainly worth it. Drugs Legislation we worked hard on during the 94th Congress resulted in my appointment to the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control. The focus of the Committee hearings held during the closing days of the session was the federal efforts to curb drug abuse by cutting drug traffic. We listened to and questioned every agency head who had any link with our drug enforcement effort. I wish I could say we discovered a cure all or a magic answer during those two weeks of hearings. We didn’t. What we did discover is that the federal effort, while it is well-intentioned, is not very effective. Every administrator pointed the finger elsewhere--not enough money, not enough manpower, not enough time, crowded court calendars, crowded detention facilities, crowded correction and rehabilitation centers. Meanwhile, drug abuse skyrockets. It was recently reported that most drug addicts must steal $11,000 a year to support their habits. Multiply that by 800,000 hard drug addicts in the United States and you have some idea of what drugs cost this country in one year. The statistics are frightening: 5,000 overdose deaths annually; 27 billion in drug related crime costs; and the number of hard drug addicts has doubled since 1973. Our drug bill calling for stiff mandatory sentences, no parole, no bond and speedy trials for those non-addict underworld businessmen who turn a profit on drugs almost became law a few years ago. We were almost successful this Congress. But next year, with a Committee specifically charged by the House to come up with tough drug legislation, we may see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Title Florida From the House...To Your Home Newsletter, July 1976 Description One page from Florida From the House...To Your Home newsletter mailed to citizens of the 9th Congressional District of Florida, represented by Representative Louis Frey, Jr. (1934-2019), who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1969 to 1979. He was on several committees during his time in office, including the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control and the Science and Technology Committee. He was also the chairman of the Young Republicans of Florida. The first article announces that the commissary the McCoy Air Force Base Commissary in Orlando, Florida, had begun selling local produce to consumers. The second article discusses the approval of Phase Two funding for the Orlando Naval Hospital. Some of the Veterans' Administration (VA) medical facilities in Central Florida were old and outdated by the 1970s. Rep. Frey and others wanted to replace them with more modern facilities in order to better serve the district's veteran population. The initial goal was to obtain a VA hospital for Brevard County, and Rep. Frey introduced legislation that would have this result. Although the legislation didn't pass through Congress, the spotlight on the issue of veterans' medical care helped to encourage other advances. One example of this was Congress' funding of a new Navy hospital in Orlando, which was a much-needed replacement for the old facility. The third article argues the inevitability of international port-of-entry status for the Orlando Jetport. Due to increasing tourism to Central Florida, the Orlando Jetport, also known as the McCoy Air Force Base, would benefit from gaining the status as an international port of entry. This would allow international travelers to arrive directly to the area. Previously, they needed to arrive in other areas of Florida like Miami and then travel to Orlando, which impeded the increase in Central Florida's tourism. Rep. Frey was one of the people who worked to achieve this goal through methods like requesting that the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury give the matter special consideration. These efforts were successful and the jetport became an international port of entry in 1976. The fourth article is about a federal court's ruling regarding the McNamara-O'Hara Service Contract Act (SCA) of 1965. The SCA required that contractors and subcontractors pay service employees the prevailing wage—the wage rates and fringe benefits found in the prevailing locality—or the rates established by the previous contractor's collective bargaining agreement. The federal court judge ruled that the Service Contract Act "only protect[ed] blue collar workers from 'wage busting.'" According to the article, Congress introduced legislation to compensate for the ruling. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Merritt Island agreed to delay re-computation of their contracts until the court appeal was resolved. Rep. Frey asked the U.S. Air Force to do the same, on behalf of contract workers for Patrick Air Force Base (PAFB). The last article discusses the Solar Energy Research Institute (SERI) and the use of solar energy in Florida. According to the article, Florida was leading the way with support from Governor Reubin Askew (1928-2014) and the Florida legislature.

Transcript McCoy Commissionary I'm delighted to report that consumers at the McCoy Commissionary in Orlando will now be able to purchase local produce. The Navy has agreed to permit Central Florida produce suppliers to bid on an item-by-item basis--provided they are competitive in price. Previously, produce vendors had to file a bid sheet for all 125 items on the procurement list and vendors in the District couldn’t compete with the big firms upstate. It’s good news when the taxpayer and the local business get a break. Navy Hospital Good news for military personnel and retirees in Central Florida! The Orlando Naval Hospital--one of our continuing projects--has been given the nod for its Phase Two funding. We received $2.978 million for some demolition and a new dental clinic. This years’ House appropriations bill contains $23.85 million for the all new facility. Our need in Orlando is critical. The 50-odd buildings connected by outdoor walkways built during WWII are antiquated and cannot begin to serve our many veterans and retirees in the area. Four years of hard work are beginning to pay off though, and the hospital will soon be a reality. Jetport International port-of-entry status for the Orlando Jetport is inevitable. Our population in Central Florida has increased dramatically in the last five years and experts project a 30 percent jump by 1980. the jetport will enplane almost a third of a million international passengers and five million pounds of export cargo by 1980. Local officials requested our help a few months ago. We contacted Bill Simon, Secretary of the Treasury, and urged him to give the Orlando application his immediate and personal attention. International status is a must and will be become a reality before fall. Lou Frey ‘76 Line Don’t forget to send your Florida Bicentennial questions to the LOU FREY ‘76 LINE, 214 Cannon H.O.B., Washington, D.C. 20515. Service Contract Act A few months ago a federal court dealt workers at KSC and PAFB a severe blow. He ruled that the Service Contract Act, which formerly protected most workers connected with government contracts, would only protect blue collar workers from “wage busting.” 3,400 formerly protected local workers were affected and over 250,000 nation-wide. We immediately introduced legislation to protect these individuals and asked NASA and the Air Force to delay recomputation of their contacts until the matter was settled. Within two months, NASA responded by agreeing to wait until November for recomputation. We’ve asked the Air Force to do the same. And we understand the Justice Department will appeal the court’s decision. The appeal will take a long time and the results are uncertain. It seems our legislation is the only way to correct this inequality. SERI at our invitation, Joe Jenckes, special assistant to the President for legislative affairs, met with Brevard Community leaders at the Solar Energy Center, He said he had “never seen an area that is better for S.E.R.I”. The race is on competition is stiff. Arizona, California, Hawaii and a surprising number of New England states are the people to beat. Florida is still the pacesetter--the Governor has lent his support, the legislature has proved its intent by appropriating a million dollars and Lockheed Missiles and Space Company has agreed to manage our team. That’s about the way a “solar watcher” would have to sum up the Solar Energy Research Institute (SERI) preliminaries. The next trial will be in July when more than 30 groups will submit their bids to ERDA. Permanent site selection for the $4 to $6 million facility will not be made public until late November, with building scheduled to begin in January.

Title Transcript of Interview with Congressman Lou Frey, Jr. Description One page from transcript of meeting with Representative Louis Frey, Jr. (1934-2019). Rep. Frey was one of the people who worked to help the City of Orlando take over the McCoy Air Force Base for civilian use after the base's closure. As a growing tourist destination, Central Florida needed sufficient means for travelers to access the area. Frey served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1969 to 1979. He was on several committees during his time in office, including the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control and the Science and Technology Committee. He was also the chairman of the Young Republicans of Florida. Frey worked with the President Richard M. Nixon's administration in order to encourage favorable conditions for the City of Orlando to gain this airport. When the airport later became an international port of entry, the tourism industry was even further benefited.

Transcript The other thing was the airport. Most people don't know the story on that . I was called by the Secretary of Defense, who I think was Mel Laird, or maybe it was the Secretary of Air Force, and he said, "Lou I need your recommendation. I've got to close one of two bases in your area. I've to [sic] close McCoy or I've got to close Patrick." At the time, because of the shutdown of Apollo, we had about 25% unemployment at the Cape area, and he said, "I have to do one of the two. What's your recommendation?" I went and did some stuff and some soul searching, and I said, if we can get some things to develop, the only one that makes sense is McCoy because we can stand the impact in Orlando plus we go t a chance to build a real regional airport out of it. So they said they would help and do some things and together with, at that time I guess it was Gurney and Dick Stone and so forth, we really got that done, got the initial funding for the whole airport, and got it through. It's funny... I don't know if this is the gind of story that you want in... but I'd run, against Him Robinson and beat him. Years later when the big thing in the airport came, it was then 1982 or whenever they rededicated it; Jim was involved in it; I forget who the chairman was' and I wasn't even invited to it. But somehow or other somebody picked up and at least asked me to be in the audience, and Bill Nelson was up there, and so forth, and was given the credit for doing the whole thing, and Bill, bless his heart, said, "Hey wait a minute, I didn't have a thing to do with this. You know, I was just there after this whole thing was done, and the guy sitting in the audience did all of this -- Lou Frey." I must admit that I really thought that was really nice of him -- a really class act for Bill to do that.

Title Introduction for Representative Lou Frey, Jr.'s American Legion Speech Description The introduction for Representative Louis Frey, Jr.'s (1934-2019) speech before the American Legion on June 30, 1973. Rep. Frey served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1969 to 1979. He was on several committees during his time in office, including the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control and the Science and Technology Committee. He was also the chairman of the Young Republicans of Florida. During his political career, Rep. Frey tackled several veterans' issues. These issues included World War I veterans' compensation, veterans' education benefits, and pensions. Additionally, Rep. Frey focused his efforts on advancing Central Florida's medical facilities for veterans by introducing several bills into Congress during the 1970s that would have called for the creation of a Veterans' Administration hospital in Brevard County. The American Legion acknowledged these efforts on behalf of veterans during this event.

Transcript Introduction to Am. Legion speech 6/30 Our honored guest this morning is no stranger to those of us who have been active in veterans affairs in Florida. He is a man who has worked very closely with our national officers in Washington and a man whose doors are always open to legionnaires visiting the nation's capitol. Our speaker is well aware of the more than one million veterans in the sunshine state and has, through legislation as well as personal contact, served our interests well. He has several veterans-related bills now before Congress and has proposed changes in the Florida state government which would result in more federal funding for veterans projects here. The hard work of our speaker in many other areas is also noted in Congress where other national leaders recognize his expertise in mobile home safety, drug rehabilitation and matters relating to energy. While devoting many long hours in solving national problems our speaker has never neglected his district, a fact well evidenced when voters returned him to a third term in Congress last fall without opposition.

Title Florida From the House...To Your Home Newsletter, December 1975 Description One page from the Florida From the House...To Your Home newsletter mailed to citizens of the 9th Congressional District of Florida, represented by Representative Louis Frey, Jr. (1934-2019), who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1969 to 1979. He was on several committees during his time in office, including the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control and the Science and Technology Committee. He was also the chairman of the Young Republicans of Florida. The first article cites updates related to legislation on veteran's affairs. According to the article, Rep. Frey introduced legislation and testified before the House Veterans' Affairs Committee to "exclude [S]ocial [S]ecurity and other retirement benefits when determining the amount of pension due [to] a veteran." Other legislation that Rep. Frey supported included a repeal of the earnings limitation for Social Security recipients, equal treatment for widows and widowers under Social Security, the elimination of the five-month waiting period for the receipt of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits, and pensions for World War I veterans and their widows. The second article discusses renovations need for the Orlando Navy Hospital. Rep. Frey reports that Congress had approved funding for the construction of a new hospital in Central Florida. Some of the Veterans' Administration (VA) medical facilities in Central Florida were old and outdated by the 1970s. Rep. Frey and others wanted to replace them with more modern facilities in order to better serve the district's veteran population. The initial goal was to obtain a VA hospital for Brevard County, and Rep. Frey introduced legislation that would have this result. Although the legislation did not pass through Congress, the spotlight on the issue of veterans' medical care helped to encourage other advances. One example of this was Congress' funding of a new Navy hospital in Orlando, which was a much-needed replacement for the old facility. The third article focuses on the illegal narcotics trade in the United States. According to the article, Frey reintroduced the Drug Pushers Elimination Act, which called for mandatory sentences for drug dealers and insured that "they are tried quickly without being let out of bail."

Transcript Updates: Continued from page 3 for the $10 social security raise; my veterans pension has now been cut $15.” It happens too often: social security goes up thereby increasing income, therefore veterans pensions are cut and you end up with less money than before. This just doesn’t make sense to give with one hand while taking with the other. To correct the problem I’ve introduced legislation and testified before the House Veterans Affairs Committee to exclude social security and other retirement benefits when determining the amount of pension due a veteran. The Committee has taken short-range action to correct the problem this year, but it has failed to take any positive action to deal with the situation on a long-range basis. In addition, I’ve joined with many of my colleagues in asking the House Ways and Means Committee to make a thorough study of the problem and come up with a solution to solve it once and for all. Let’s hope we make some progress. Some of the other legislation affecting veterans and seniors that I’ve been pushing for includes: A repeal of the earnings limitation for social security recipients. If my bill is passed, there would be no loss of earned benefits even if you earn more than $2,400 a year, the current limit. Equal treatment for widows and widowers, husbands and wives under social security. Times have changed and more and more women are now working. Under this proposal the 30 million plus working women would receive the same protection for their dependents as working men do now. The elimination of the 5-month waiting period for social security disability benefits. Under present law, a disabled individual cannot receive any benefits--retroactive or otherwise--for the first 5 months of his disability. Meanwhile he is unable to work, and this means that quite often, there’s no money coming in when it is needed the most. I think we can revise the system to prove true disability without having to force people to suffer through the 5-month waiting period. Pensions for World War I veterans and their widows, regardless of outside income. A married veteran or widow with dependents would receive $150 per month whereas a single veteran or widow without dependents would be entitled to $135 a month. Orlando Navy Hospital--Anyone who has ever been to the Orlando Navy Hospital knows first-hand how desperately a replacement is needed. The 56 separate, World War II type buildings are obsolete, there is no smooth patient flow, and adequate up-to-date facilities are sadly lacking. Long hours in inadequate and overcrowded waiting rooms are common. Patients’ medical needs, as well as the working requirements for the staff, have been too long ignored and neglected. Therefore, I’m especially pleased to report that the Congress has approved the first funds for the Navy to build a new hospital. $2.9 million has been included in this year’s budget for the project; the hospital proper is scheduled for construction in fiscal ‘77. After years of working on this project, it’s good to see it finally out of the reserve stage and onto the active list. Drug Pushers--The problem of drugs is still a tough one in this country. And, feeding the problem are the pushers--especially non-addict pushers who are underworld businessmen making a great deal of profit from the habits of others. I’ve just re-introduced my Drug Pushers Elimination Act which calls for these individuals and insurers they are tried quickly without being let out on bail. A recent survey revealed that in 422 cases, over three-fourths had bail set at less than $10,000; in 20% of these cases it cost the defendant nothing to obtain release. And--this is the tragic part--the non-addict pusher out on easy bail is back in business immediately, introducing more and more young people to drugs. We need tougher laws; we need them enforced. We hope this bill is the one that brings this about. Lou Frey Jr. M. C. Congress of the United States House of Representatives Washington, D.

Title Florida From the House...To Your Home Newsletter, January 1974 Description One page from the Florida From the House...To Your Home newsletter mailed to citizens of the 9th Congressional District of Florida, represented by Representative Louis Frey, Jr. (1934-2019), who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1969 to 1979. He was on several committees during his time in office, including the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control and the Science and Technology Committee. He was also the chairman of the Young Republicans of Florida. The first article discusses federal spending at John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Merritt Island, Florida. Rep. Frey states that workers at KSC and the Eastern Test Range were profiting from the upgrade of their wage schedules. According to the article, the Economic Adjustment Council, at Rep. Frey's urging, conducted an in-depth study of Brevard County and the adverse effects of federal spending cuts to the national space program. The second article continues by discussing the Brevard Growth Council, which was spawned as a result of the Economic Adjustment Council's study. The growth council focused on "attracting new industry and [o]n moving Brevard from a space-oriented economy to a self-sustaining and diversified economy." The council's actions included a study of the tourist industry in Brevard, a continuing feasibility study of Port Canaveral, and the restoration of the name "Canaveral" to the Cape. The establishment of a Veterans' Administration (VA) outpatient clinic in Orlando is the subject of the third article. Although Central Florida was the home of a large number of veterans, the region did not have a VA hospital and its other medical facilities were also largely outdated. Attempts to obtain approval to build a VA hospital in Central Florida were initially unsuccessful. Politicians like Rep. Frey attempted to pass legislation in order to establish such a hospital. An outpatient clinic was built in Orlando in the early 1970s as the issue of VA medical facilities became more prevalent due to these legislative efforts. The clinic both provided more sufficient medical care for the area's veterans and created new jobs for residents. The final article, which begins on this page and is continued on another page, is about Rep. Frey's efforts to establish a White House Conference on the Handicapped.

Transcript Outpatient Clinic Our battle to obtain funding for a veterans hospital in the area also paid off to a certain extent in 1973 with the establishment of a Veterans Administration outpatient clinic in Orlando. The clinic, due to open in June, will employ about 40 persons and operate on an annual budget of $1 million with 20,000 patient visits projected for the first year alone. Our district, as well as the entire state, should also share in the benefits of our aquatic weed agreement signed during the fall of 1973.The agreement, an outgrowth of a meeting I called in late 1972, will allow local, state and federal governments to work together and coordinate efforts to combat weeds which choke our scenic rivers and lakes. My federal noxious weed act, an outgrowth of our aquatic weed agreement in Florida, passed the House of Representatives in 1973 and is now pending before the Senate. This bill bans the importation of weeds or plants which might prove harmful to man or his environment. Had this bill been law many years ago, we would not today be battling aquatic weeds in Florida and other states.

Sanford (Fla.) Plays Theater--United States Description The original idea for the Celery Soup: Florida’s Folk Life Play project came from Jeanine Taylor, the owner of a folk-art gallery on First Street in Sanford, Florida. Their first production was Touch and Go, a play focusing on the people of Sanford and their determination to overcome various obstacles, including the Freeze of 1894-1895, the fall of Sanford's celery industry, and the closing of Naval Air Station (NAS) Sanford in the 1960s. Richard Geer and Jules Corriere, partners from Community Performance International, were in charge of assessing oral histories, converting them into scenes for the play, and writing original songs. Director Geer also used an all-volunteer cast from the local community, many of whom were not experienced actors. In the process of producing the show, Creative Sanford decided to rehabilitate an historic building, the Princess Theater, which is located on 115 West First Street and owned by Stephen Tibstra.

This section contains the platform on unemployment insurance, senior citizens, veterans, and urban development. For veterans, he platform references several goals, including the maintenance and improvement of educational benefits for veterans and the Veterans Administration hospital system. Represemtatove Lou Frey, Jr. (1934-2019) notably took on these projects in his Central Florida district, although not all of his efforts passed through Congress. One of these efforts was the repeated introduction of bills to the U.S. House of Representatives that would establish a VA hospital in Brevard County. Rep. Frey served in the House from 1969 to 1979.

Transcript VETERANS The nation must never forget its appreciation and obligation to those who have served in the armed forces. Because they bear the heaviest burdens of war, we owe special honor and compensation to disabled veterans and survivors of the war dead. We are firmly committed to maintaining and improving our Veterans Administration hospital system. Younger veterans, especially those who served in the Vietnam conflict, deserve education, job and housing loan benefits equivalent to those of World War II and the Korean conflict. Because of our deep and continuing concern for those still listed as Prisoners of War or Missing in Action in Vietnam, the Foreign Policy section of this Republican Platform calls for top priority actions. And we must continue to provide for our veterans at their death a final resting place for their remains in a national cemetery and the costs of transportation thereto.

Title Return Frey to Congress Description A newspaper article from Florida TODAY endorsing Representative Lou Frey, Jr. (1934-2019) for reelection to the U.S. House of Representatives. Rep. Frey served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1969 to 1979. He was on several committees during his time in office, including the Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control and the Science and Technology Committee. He was also the chairman of the Young Republicans of Florida. The article notably acknowledges that Rep. Frey's difficulty in getting some of his introduced bills passed was more due to the workings of the Congress than the congressman himself. This explanation sheds light on the reasons for the lack of passage of some congressional bills, including several bills introduced by Rep. Frey that would establish a Veterans Administration (VA) hospital in Brevard County. Date Created ca. 1974-10 Coverage Winter Park, Florida Brevard County, Florida Source Original newspaper article: <a href="http://www.floridatoday.com/" target="_blank">Florida TODAY</a>, October 1974: Lou Frey Papers, Digital Shared Files, <a href="http://loufreyinstitute.org/" target="_blank">Lou Frey Institute of Politics & Government</a>, Special Collections and University Archives, University of Central Florida, Orlando, Florida.

Transcript Last spring, TODAY's congressional correspondent included the following in a review written on the congressman: "...Frey's legislative record is sparse, reflective more of the ways of Congress than of any lack of effort on his part. Legislation introduced by Republicans doesn't get much attention, without the co-sponsorship of Democrats, but Frey has a few major bills that have some chance of really winning passage.
