Parramore Collection
Subject
Orlando (Fla.)
Description
Bordered on the east by Division Street and on the west by Orange Blossom Trail (OBT), the Parramore began as an agricultural community. Parramore was historically a segregated African-American community and now comprises three separate downtown neighborhoods: Lake Dot, Callahan, and Holden-Parramore.<br /><br />Once an economically thriving area and the home of many prominent black businesses and institutions, including the Wells’ Built Hotel, South Street Casino, and Wallace’s Beauty Mill, Parramore suffered under Jim Crow segregation, and has lost 65 percent of its population in the last 50 years. It is now one of Orlando’s poorest neighborhoods, with an unemployment rate of 23.8 percent in 2015. However, neighborhood institutions like the Well's Built Museum of African American History and Culture, housed in the historic Wells’ Built Hotel, have worked to preserve memorabilia from Orlando’s African-American community and the local civil rights movement. Current plans to revitalize the Parramore area focus on maintaining its black heritage and culture while building new businesses, schools, and improved housing.

Youth participants on the City of Orlando Youth Baseball Team, which operated from 1999 to 2003. The team eventually had youths up to 14 years old playing baseball, and would play in Grand Avenue Park. The contributor's son, Nathaniel Jenkins, is pictured fourth from the front of the photograph.<br /><br />Created by Jerry Applebee and Polly Applebee in 1994, the Restore Orlando's after-school program organized outings such as horseback riding and helicopter rides. The Applebees were affiliated with the Church of the Nazarene in the Parramore neighborhood of Downtown Orlando, Florida. Dedra Jenkins fought to have a basketball court built for the older children at Kaley Square Park across the street. Originally, owners of the church and park did not want a court because they feared it would be a place where drug dealers would congregate.<br /><br />This photograph, taken by an unknown volunteer at the program, was originally discarded, along with other similar photographs, and then found by a local resident near the Emmanuel Fellowship and Worship Center, which is located at the former site of Restore Orlando. The collection was given to the contributor, Dedra Jenkins.

Description
A painting by Bettye Reagan, a local artist in Central Florida, inspired by a photograph of men, possibly students, playing baseball in front of the Oviedo School, located at 601 King Street in Oviedo, Florida, in the 1940s. The school was first established in 1922 as a K-12 school. In 1948, the secondary grades separated from the elementary school. The upper grade levels formed Oviedo High School and moved to the campus at 601 King Street. Oviedo High School is notable for The Lion's Tale, the award-winning school newspaper recognized by various national and state scholastic press associations; its high ratings from the Governor's A+ Plan for Education; and its successful athletics programs.

<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Okay. Today, it is March 19<sup>th</sup>, 2015. I am interviewing James [Marion] Jones as part of the UCF [University of Central Florida] Oviedo History Harvest, and we are recording this interview at the Oviedo Historical Society located at the Lawton House in Oviedo, Florida. So my first question is: what is your full name?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>My full name is James Marion Jones. That’s Marion—M-A-R-I-O-N. I was born June the 19<sup>th</sup>, 1945.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Um, and when did your family come to Oviedo?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>My—on my paternal side, my, uh, great-great grandfather was…</p>
<p>[<em>cell phone rings</em>]</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Was Batts Nusum Mitchell. He was the first one to move here in about 1870. He was, uh, a dentist, and he also farmed in the area now known as Mitchell Hammock, and—off Mitchell Hammock Road, which that’s named for him. Uh, in fact, he’s buried out in the Drawdy[-Rouse] Cemetery. You know where that is? Rouse-Drawdy[sic] Cemetery on Rouse Road, by UCF.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh huh, he’s buried out there. He was the first one of our family to move from[sic] Oviedo—to Oviedo from Georgia, uh, again around 1870.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Okay, um, did you—your maternal family—did they live here? Or is that…</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Excuse me?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Different? Your maternal family?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh, my maternal family. My maternal family—my, um, mother’s—my, uh, mother’s family was from Macon, Georgia.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And as far as I know, back there, on their side, my great-great grandfather fought in the [American] Civil War. His name was C. A. Dewberry. Uh, he fought in A. P. Hill’s division of the Army of Northern Virginia, under—under [Robert E.] Lee. He was, uh, injured in the Battle of Vicksburg<a title="">[1]</a>, was captured at [the Siege of] Petersburg,<a title="">[2]</a> held as a POW [prisoner of war] in Virginia until the end of the war, and, uh, the[?]—he lived until 1922—I believe that it was—then[?] died in Macon, Georgia, and then my—I don’t know how my mother and father met in Macon, but they did, married in Macon, and then he brought her back to Oviedo where the rest of my paternal side was—was living at the time, and, um, my, uh—again, it was my—I keep getting all the greats confused [<em>laughs</em>] —Great-great-great-grandfather was Batts Mitchell. He has a daughter…</p>
<p>[<em>cell phone rings</em>]</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Named Emma Jean Mitchell, who married the first Jones, uh, and her name was, uh, Emma Jean Mitchell Jones. They’re buried right here in the Oviedo Cemetery</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And—and again, he practiced farming out in what’s now known as the Mitchell Hammock area, and he, uh, practiced dentistry too, and, uh, when he, uh—when he died, we gave his dental kit, which is a rather elaborate dental kit, to the University of Florida and the Florida State Museum</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, wow.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>In Tallahassee. That’s a picture of his dental kit. They’re all pearl—pearl-handled, uh, instruments, uh, even still had some of the chemicals and that—that he—they used then in 1870s, including arsenic—believe it or not [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And stuff like—you can have that, if you’d like.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, thank you.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And I still have the original picture of it too, if you ever wanted a better copy, but, um, uh, it—it—yeah, they moved here. He traced it—we traced it—we can trace his lineage—Mitchell’s—back to 18—to 1700s, and they moved here from Ireland and Scotland. Uh, in fact, I don’t know if you’d be interested in any of this or not. I just ran, uh, this, uh, thing. I didn’t do all this work. Somebody else did…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>This work, but that was the, um—the lineage there.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, wow.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Of, um, where we came from. I’m somewhere around generation six or seven, I believe. Uh, it goes back to—it goes back to the old country anyway, beginning like when the first Mitchells moved here from Ireland and Scotland. One of ‘em served in the [American] Revolutionary War, and then his son served in the War of 1812, and then we had some that fought in the, uh, Civil War, for the South<a title="">[3]</a> of course [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Right.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>The— I [inaudible]—the War—War of Northern Aggression, it was known as in the South, you know?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Wow.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And, uh, just—just for you—your case, that’s the, uh, maternal side where I came from,</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /> </strong>Mmhmm[?].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And, um, the first one of that, [inaudible] I can’t trace her back as far as the old country. I never had really tried though, but that’s where they came—they all came from Macon, and thank God they left Macon too. You ever been to Macon, Georgia?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>I have not.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh, don’t ever go.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>No?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>It is hot, dirty, smelly—oh, it’s a terrible place [<em>laughs</em>]. Great place to be from [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Right.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>But, um, anyway…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Okay[?], um, so, what did your parents do?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>My, uh, oh, okay, uh, like I say, uh, Dr. Mitchell—he had a, um—his daughter Emma Jean married the first Jones. He had a general store in Oviedo. He—he would’ve been my great grandfather, and then my grandfather, uh, continued that on, and he had a general store. He also worked for the railroad, and he was postmaster of Oviedo for about 15 years, and then his son—my father—John Batts Jones, Jr., uh, was postmaster of Oviedo post office for 25 years until his death in [19]63.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Okay[?]. Um, uh, what would you say your father was like—like his personality?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh, he was very businesslike. Uh, they worked hard back then. Uh, I know that, back then—actually when he was a postmaster—back then, in those days, the post office was open six days a week, including Saturdays, and of course, they had to be there in advance to open up, they had to be there afterwards to shut down, so I’ll bet you he worked a 70-hour week, and my mother was a clerk at the post office as well, and, uh—so they worked long, hard hours. It was—it was—back then in those days, it was—it was a hard life. It was a lot—lot of hours of work. [Inaudible], you know, we don’t appreciate it, uh, now, I don’t think, uh, but they did. They worked very hard. He’s very businesslike, but, uh, they were good.</p>
<p>They had, uh, two children: my brother<a title="">[4]</a> and myself. Uh, both of us went to Oviedo High School. I think there were 12 in my brother’s graduating class of Oviedo High School in 1955. There were 30 in my graduating class in 1963, and there were half—there were about five of us, I think, that started in the first grade together and went all the way through—graduated together.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>What did your brother do—go on to do?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>My brother, uh—you see, the basketball picture up? He was a, uh, superstar in basketball. In fact, he set records at Oviedo High School that are[?]—still exist. He’s in the hall of fame up there, and he got a full basketball scholarship to the University of Florida, uh, and he played up there his freshman year. He was red-shirted his sophomore year, and then in the summer of his sophomore year, he was working for the Alachua County, just to make some spending money, and he—and, uh, he was, uh, working with the road department, and he was sawing a limb off a tree and he had a terrible accident, fell, and nearly died, and—and he—and he was left with a severe handicap after that, which he had to cope with for the rest of his life.</p>
<p>So that ended his—any potential sports career that he might have had, because he was—he was excellent in basketball particularly, but[?] he was also a good baseball player. Oviedo didn’t have football back then. We didn’t have enough people in the school to have a football team [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh, oh, where was I? Then, of course, uh—then I grew up in his shadow. He was eight and half years older than me. I certainly grew up in his shadow. Oviedo was a little town back then, and everything circulated around the church and the school.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And, of course, everybody in town knew everybody, whether you went to the gas station to get gas for your car, or whether you went to the barbershop to get a haircut. It was really—you’ve seen the movie. Do you remember—you remember <em>Mayberry R.F.D.</em>—that TV series?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, I don’t know.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Sorry.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>You’re too young. Okay, it was just a little one stoplight town, and I grew up in his shadow. “Are you going to be as good as your brother? You gonna be…” Well, Johnny was 6’3”, 185 pounds in high school. I was 5’8, 140 pounds [<em>laughs</em>]. There wasn’t any way I was going to be another Johnny Jones in sports, but he was my hero, nevertheless. I loved him to death, and—and, uh, we had a good, warm, uh, relationship growing up until he, uh—until his injury [inaudible] almost took his life.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Mmhmm[?].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Buddied around with him. You wouldn’t know we were eight years difference, ‘cause he always took me along with him everywhere—just about everywhere he went.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Um, okay, so did you have any favorite family stories that you wanted to tell?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Or any traditions?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Gosh, well, our, uh—like I said, work was always a big part of, uh, my mother and dad’s life, and when it came to, uh, vacation time, we did one of two things: we either went to the mountains in North Carolina or we went to Daytona Beach and spent a week or two—or a week or two up in the mountains. That was—that was their life. That’s what they loved to do. They loved to go to the mountains and they loved to go to the beach. So we would do that. Of course, I was like an only child, uh, because my brother being so much older. So when we would go on these vacations, I was like an only child, by myself. Wasn’t anybody to play with, but I had to make up my own, uh, time. Uh, in the summer, uh—again, all the life in Oviedo, in that time, circulated around either the church or the school during the regular year. When I say “regular year,” I mean like the school year from September to June.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh, uh, and then in the summers, the only thing there was to do in the summers was to go to the Oviedo swimming pool. Are you familiar with the Oviedo swimming pool…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yes.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Down in Sweetwater Park?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones <br /></strong>It was built on WPA.<a title="">[5]</a></p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, really?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh huh, uh, back in the ‘30s, and it really was a nice pool. It was one of the nicest pools in the area. In fact, people came from as far away as Titusville and others—and other cities to use the Oviedo pool, because it was—it was—it really was a nice pool, uh, for its time. Of course, they ended up closing it in, mm, late ‘60s, because there’s no way—it didn’t meet any mind of health standards. It didn’t have a filtration system. It didn’t have a chlorination system.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Wow [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Jone<br /></strong>What they would do is, every three or four days, they would empty all the water out of the pool and fill it up with fresh water.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>So the day after they filled it up with fresh water, it was cold [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>I bet.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And then, by the fourth day, it was really nice and warm [<em>laughs</em>], but, uh—so that was all there really was to do much in, uh—in Oviedo back in—in, uh, the summertime was the pool, and as it[?] got a little bit older, uh, there were some summer baseball leagues for, uh—for little kids. They called them Babe Ruth Leagues, Where you just, uh—just got together and played, uh, Sanford schools or Longwood or something, uh, and then like I say, during the school year, everything circulated around the church and the school. The “school” primarily meaning basketball games, and, uh, the baseball games, of course, were played, uh, during the day, and so that wasn’t as big a community event, because people were working. They didn’t have lights back then. Um, so, eh, the, uh, basketball games were the main thing—that and—and church. Um, Oviedo was quiet. It was, of course—I started—I was born, again, in 1945, right at the end of the war. It was a quiet little town, safe. Nobody locked anything. I don’t know that we even owned any keys to the house. Um, nobody ever stole anything, or anything like that.</p>
<p>One kind of funny story, along that line, my mother and my brother had been to church one Sunday night. They came home and she went in. I stayed home with my dad, and she woke my dad up, and she called him J. B. that was his nickname, J.B. “J.B., who’s asleep on the couch?” And he, uh—and—and, we had a couch, [inaudible] “Nobody. It’s just Jimmy and I here.” She says “Somebody’s asleep out there on the couch.” So I went out there and sure enough, some drunk had wondered in off the street, laid down on the couch, and gone to sleep [<em>laughs</em>]. So I guess they just woke him up and send him on his way. I would have been just a real little fella at this time, but I remember that was just hilarious, because nobody locked anything. I don’t know if we owned any keys to the house.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] And everybody else was the same way too.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, um, what church did your family go to?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>The Oviedo Baptist Church.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[inaudible]?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Right across the street there. Uh huh, my—in fact, my, um—my great grandfather, J. M. Jones, was the clerk of the, uh, church for many years. I don’t know how many. Uh…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Okay, um, did you go on to go to college as well?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Yeah, I went—after I graduated from high school in ’63, they had a junior college in Orlando called Orlando Junior College at the time. It was a private junior college. I went there for one year, and then I transferred to the University of Florida in Gainesville. It was before UCF.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>There were no other—yeah, all the other colleges in the area were a few private schools—private colleges, like Rollins [College], Stetson [College], Florida Southern [College]. So I went to Gainesville, and also I always wanted to go to Gainesville, because that’s where my brother Johnny went too.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Did you enjoy it?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh, yes. Best[?]—look—look back at it now, some of the best years of my life. Of course, like every other kid, at the time, you know, “We gotta hurry up and get outta here and get on with life and blah, blah, blah,” and when you get older, you look back and those are some good years, and—wish I took more time to smell the flowers [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Um, so I understand you went to Oviedo [School] when the plane crashed?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh huh. Sure, did, and, uh, I wrote up a little thing that I sent to— I don’t know if you got this or if I sent it to—Desta’s<a title="">[6]</a> her name?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, yeah, I think she told me about it.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh, yeah, I’m, um, you know—do you where the old school was? You seen pictures of the old school up there?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yeah, yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>It was a typical old two-story, brick schoolhouse.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And I happened to be on the first floor, on the west side, in my English class. The teacher was Jack Caliber[sp], and I was sitting there and staring out the window, as I often did [<em>laughs</em>] in school—class, and I saw, uh, these planes coming barely above treetop level. There were three of them at first. There were, uh, two what they call [North American A-5] Vigilantes. They were all photo reconnaissance planes out of NAS<a title="">[7]</a> Sanford at the time, and just as they came over treetop, they obviously realized that there was a school dead ahead, and a two-story school, and they were not going to clear it. The playground, which is right across the back of the property here, was full of elementary—the elementary kids were at recess, at that time. Uh, the—the high school kids, like myself—we were all in the big building. Anyway, as soon as they realized that the two Vigilantes just <em>phew</em>, peeled off like that, and that, uh, A3J [Vigilante]—the one you see the picture of there.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>That—that’s not the plane. That is just, uh, one of the type planes.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh, as soon as he saw it, he did—what you’re used to seeing planes horizontal. I mean, I served on an aircraft carrier in the Navy, and [<em>laughs</em>] so I’ve seen lots of planes, and you’re used to seeing them, but as soon as he saw the school, he did this, and went completely vertical, and it is still etched in my mind. You—you don’t see planes in that vertical position, and he did that, and then, <em>shoo</em>—<em>bam</em>, and he landed about, oh, probably no more than a couple hundred feet from the school property, but [inaudible] in the orange grove that was owned by the Ward family at the time, and of course, pandemonium was breaking out at the school, even though we—there weren’t many of us. There was only like—oh, like 300 of us in the whole school at the time. That’s grades one through 12, and, um, my business teacher, right across the hallway—Novella [Driggers] Aulin was her name. She said, “Jimmy, Jimmy, won’t you—I need you to go check on Burt [Ward] and Bill Ward. See if they’re okay,” because they—they were some friends of hers that had a mobile home right over there in that area. She said “Here, take my car.” She gave me the keys to her car. Now, I was a junior in high school [<em>laughs</em>]. They’d hang you for this kind of stuff today [<em>laughs</em>]. She handed me the keys to her car, an old Mercury. I remember I had a hell of a time driving it, ‘cause it had some kind of weird transmission.</p>
<p>So I go out there and I jump in, and I was the only one that left the school grounds, and I drove around to the site, and by the time I got over there, the Navy had already posted a sentry, but that—but there—I was from here to the door to the crash, but I think—there was nothing—it was nothing much left. When a plane crashes and burns, I mean, it just—it just burns up. There’s a big ball of, uh, fire from the, uh, jet fuel, but that just goes up—<em>whish</em>, and that’s it. The rest of it then is just smoldering, and I didn’t put this in the write-up, ‘cause it was kind of, um, gross, or macabre, but you get the bodies of the three dead were on top of the ground still strapped into their, uh, seats. Uh, so then I went back to the school and I told—told Novella that Burt and Bill’s house was okay. That is didn’t hit ‘em. Of course, one of the other teachers was mad as hell at me for leaving the school grounds [<em>laughs</em>], but that was okay. he couldn’t do anything, because the other teacher not only gave me permission, told me to go, gave me the keys to her car, and, um, I was—I was on the student council at the time, so, uh, a delegation of us went over to Sanford to the memorial service for the three that died, but they definitely—they gave their lives to avoid hitting that school. There’s no ifs, ands or buts about it, because they—they would have hit—there’s no doubt they would have hit it.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Alright, um, so, uh, you were in the Navy?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Yeah, I was—I was—like I say, I went over to Florida, and I graduated from Florida—the University of Florida—in ’67. This was right in the middle of the Vietnam War.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Ah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And, uh, so I had to choose, uh, what I was going to do, so rather than being drafted and going into the Army, I, uh, signed up and I went to, uh, went to the Naval Officer Candidate School in New Port, Rhode Island, where I got commissioned as [inaudible] in 1967. Ending up staying and getting out in ’69, at the end of the war, and I stayed in the Navy Reserves[sic] for 20—a total of 25 years, and retired in 1991 as a captain.</p>
<p>[<em>cell phone rings</em>]</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Yeah, I graduated—I retired in ’91. Um, when I got off active duty in 1969, I wanted to teach, so I went to work for Seminole County [Public] School system. I taught two years at—well, it was, at that time, South Seminole Junior High School. Then it became, the next year, South Seminole Middle School. Then I transferred to Oviedo Junior-Senior High School, where I taught for one year, then they moved the middle school to Jackson Heights [Middle School]. Uh, it had been a sixth grade center and they added the seventh grade out there. So I went out there, and I became the assistant principle at Jackson Heights, and I was there for 21 years, I believe, or—21 or 22 years at Jackson Heights, and then I transferred to Tuskawilla Middle School. I was their assistant principle for nine years, and then I transferred my last two or three years to Lawton Chiles Middle School, where I retired in—I think it was 2003.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>What did you teach?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>I taught math.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Did you enjoy that[?]?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh, yeah. I’ve always been math—math buff. My, uh, high school math teacher’s probably shaking his head, but, uh—but I did. I would say one thing you might find that was interesting: I remember when I—when I was at, uh, Oviedo Elementary School, you know, the—the price of one of those half pints of milk were three cents, at that time [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>I think a full lunch—and it was a full lunch back then—it wasn’t the kind of lunches they have now—like, it was 30 cents, but the milk was three cents. So it’s a different time, and, uh, so then after, uh—after I, uh, retired, then I—I, uh, always liked the, uh, east coast, and Oviedo was getting so big. This area was getting so big then that I decided to move over the Melbourne. That’s where I’ve been ever since.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yeah.<strong> </strong>So how do you feel about all the changes in Oviedo?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh, I tell you. It’s, uh—it’s progress, I guess, but there’s sometimes [<em>laughs</em>] I wish they’d just put it back the way it was, but, you know, you can’t go back again. That’s just—it’s gonna get—it’s—in the next 20 years, it’s gonna be even bigger. No doubt about it. It’s—it’s—it is something. It’s something. I remember when I was in high school, where—where UCF is out there, that property was for sale, and it had a plywood si—signs up there with, uh, Carrigan and Boland Realty. All that property was for sale for 300 dollars an acre.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>And the—and the sign stayed there ‘til it rotted down. That’s just how [<em>laughs</em>]—it wasn’t—you can imagine now what it’s worth [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>That’s crazy. Did you hear they’re tear—they’re gonna make this road<a title="">[8]</a> bigger?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Yes, they did. I have, um—my cousin, um, Mary Jones, um, owns one of the buildings in the old…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, really?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Down—Mary Jones Bird owns one of the buildings, and, uh, in fact, she was here visiting last week, and she told me she had just closed with the State of the Florida. Are they going to take this house down over here—you know, my old house?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Um, I don’t think so, I think it’s everything before the Baptist church. Like Townhouse [Restaurant]…</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>All that way?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Down that way.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Um…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro</strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Uh huh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>So I don’t think so.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>I just wondered if they were going to take it down. I—I guess it’s open to some—some sort of office buildings…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Or something in there now. Many years ago, I was here for one of their<a title="">[9]</a> Great Day in the Countries, and I, uh, just went over there and walked through, just kind of looked around for old time’s sake, because as a little kid, I remember I thought it was huge, and then I went in and looked and I said, <em>Man, this is little.</em></p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] But, uh, okay. I was wondering about that.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yeah, I think that staying. Um, okay, so do you have any interests or hobbies?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Yeah, boating, sailing…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Boating?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Fishing, outdoor activities like that.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>I, uh, right now, in my retired years, I spend three—three months a year, I spend over in the Bahamas, and then we come back during the—when hurricane season starts, we start getting ready to go back the next year, and we have a lot of family that comes over with us every year, ‘cause they all love it, and stay with us for a week or two, and friends, so that’s what—that’s what I’m—that’s what my life’s doing right now.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Do you have family that’s still here in Oviedo?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Yes, uh, my daughter Dawn [Raquel Jones] Jensen is very active in the [Oviedo] Historical Society.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>You know her?</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Yes, I think I met her.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Yeah, that’s my daughter. Uh, my, um—my other daughter, Kathy [Jones], lives in Miami Beach. I have a daughter, Pam [Jones], that lives over in, uh, East Orlando, and then just two years ago, I—we lost a son, uh, uh, Jimmy. I[?]—he passed away and, uh, lost him, and that’s—that’s the family, and my cousin, Mary—she, uh—she was down—she lives in Asheville, North Carolina now. She was a longtime Oviedo resident too, but I guess that Dawn actually is really the only one who’s still living in the Oviedo area—in Oviedo, as per se.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Right. Alrighty, um, so were you remarried—your wife?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Yeah, uh, I got married, um, out of, uh, college. Had the two children, Pam and Jimmy, and then that marriage didn’t survive. Remarried in 1995, uh, a girl from Goldenrod. We had two children Dawn and Kathy, and that’s it.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>Oh, okay. Um, so is there anything that you want to tell me that I haven’t asked you about?</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh, gosh, I’m trying to think…</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh, hi. I’m Jim.</p>
<p><strong>Tammaro<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Horner<br /></strong>Desta [Horner].</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>Oh, you’re Desta. Okay, great. Yeah, uh, we’ve been having a very interesting conversation. I [inaudible]. Let me look here real quick. Dawn, uh, sent me some things, said you might want to mention this, that, or the other. Let me see what it was that, uh, she said to talk about. Uh, uh, um, uh, well, we had, uh—the Oviedo School was really great. We had some really wonderful teachers…</p>
<p><strong>Unidentified<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Jones<br /></strong>There, and I really do credit the success that I have had in life with the great teachers that, uh—that we had. I know Mrs. Palmer—Betty Palmer Sprat. She’s a member of your historical society. She was my science teacher in high school—wonderful lady, uh, and there were several others like her that, uh, didn’t take any gruff from us, and believe me, we were capable of hand—handing it out [<em>laughs</em>], but they were always a step ahead of us [<em>laughs</em>].</p>

Transcript
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Alright, so we’re here with, um, Ms. Nadine [Davis] Aulin, conducting an oral history interview. Um, the interview is conducted by myself, Sarah Schneider, at the Alafaya [Library] Branch of the Orange County Library System, um, in Orlando, Florida. It’s Friday, March 13<sup>th</sup>, twe—2015, and, um, the interview will cover topics about Oviedo’s history and the Aulin family’s history, and, um, this is being done for the UCF [University of Central Florida] Public History introduction class, um, for their project on Oviedo’s history. So welcome. Thank you for talking with us today.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, I’m glad to be here.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Um, and so could you start off just introducing yourself, um, to the camera. So tell yourself a little—tell us a little bit about yourself, um, where you grew up, and how long you’ve been in Oviedo.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Okay, I, um, was born and raised in Orlando. Um, remember Orlando from when it was, uh, 75,000 until now. uh, I married my husband<a title="">[1]</a> in 1965, and prior to that, I had been to Oviedo many times. my grandparents lived in Chuluota, uh, but I wasn’t, you know, didn’t really know people from Oviedo, but, uh, my husband, uh, went to Vietnam in 1965 through ’66, and during that time, uh, I lived with his aunt, who was, uh, Nettie [Dorcas] Jacobs Aulin. She was married to, uh, Theodore Aulin, who everybody called “The Judge,”, because he was Justice of the Peace.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Ah.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, in addition to that, my mother-in-law,<a title="">[2]</a> at that time, was living and she lived in Oviedo, and we had a close relationship.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh, great, um, and so what was life like in or—in Oviedo when you moved here—in the area?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, it was sorta cool. Um, the big events happened through the [First] Methodist Church [of Oviedo] or the [First] Baptist Church [of Oviedo]. uh, anything that was going on it was either through that or the—or the [Seminole County Public] Schools. Um, people—it was a big deal to go into Orlando out to eat. You know, you didn’t just do that willy-nilly. You, eh—it was an occasion.</p>
<p>Um, what I loved about that time is, uh, Oviedo had one police officer, and that was, um, George Kelsey, and his family had been here I think as long as the Aulins, uh, and he, uh, took care of the town. He, uh, would sleep, I think, in the early morning and then be around 18 hours a day doing his job, and he did it well. I don’t think we had too much crime. Uh, one of the things is, uh—Aunt Nettie—when I was living with her, we had an armadillo that bothered us, and she called Mr. Kelly[sic]—Mr. Kelsey to, uh, come get rid of that armadillo, and he says, “Well, Aunt Nettie, I’ll—I’ll be there as soon as I can. I just got in bed,” and she said, “Well, he’s out in our yard now, you need to come by now.” [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So he did. He came, and, uh, he says, “Okay. Well, I’m here. Where’s the armadillo?” And we—of course, the armadillo was gone by the time he got there, and she says, “Well, just hang around. you can shoot it,” and he says, “I don’t think I’m gonna be shooting armadillos, Aunt Nettie,” and—because, you know, everybody called everybody “Aunt” or “Ms.” or—you know, it wasn’t just first names, and she was, uh—one of his best friend’s son, er—her son was one of his best friends, and so, of course, he wanted to accommodate her, but he didn’t [<em>laughs</em>]—he wanted to be shooting armadillos in Downtown Oviedo. We lived right across from the Baptist church.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So that wouldn’t have gone over very well, but that’s just sorta how Oviedo was back in those days—is that everybody knew everybody, and, uh, like the mayor of the time was, uh—oh, gosh, what was his name?<a title="">[3]</a> He was so nice. Um, it’ll come to me, but anyway, he used to go to the post office every morning and bring me my mail. You know, you’re not supposed to let somebody have somebody else’s mail, but he would bring me my mail, because my husband, being in Vietnam, he would write to me every day, and so this mayor would, uh—gosh, why can’t I think of his name? Um, he would bring me my mail, and, uh, it was just sorta, you know—sorta like, uh, small town, uh, neighborly kinda things that went on, back in those days.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Great, great, and did you mention, um—what year did you come to Oviedo?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I was, uh…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>I’m not…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>We got married in ‘65, and he soon left to go to Vietnam right after that. So, yeah, ’65.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And I was working at the Townhouse Restaurant, and it was like a year old</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>When I started to work there.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Wow, uh, huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And so it’s been an institution…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>For many years now.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Yeah, Um, and what kinds of people—what kinds of jobs did people have in town around that time?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, most everybody worked at either the packin’ house or in the groves, and you know, of course, there was the insurance companies, and there was real estate, uh, people back, at that time. Oviedo was beginning to build up, because the [Florida Technological] University<a title="">[4]</a> was in the works…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And people were moving out this way and buying houses, and, um—but farming and, um, the citrus was[sic] the main jobs, uh, I think, uh, at the time. At some point in time, I went to work for Citizens Bank [of Oviedo],<a title="">[5]</a> and at that time, it was like the, uh, only—the—the next largest business that wasn’t, uh, uh, the packin’ house…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>You know, and, uh, I think it was the only building, at that time, that had an elevator, and it may still be.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I don’t know. I can’t—I don’t know if there’s any buildings in the actual town that has an elevator, besides that. Maybe they do. I don’t know, but that was sort of a big deal that they had an elevator...</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>To [inaudible], uh, but yeah. There was one—I—I I’m trying to think if there was any other major jobs. Uh, there was your, uh—you know, you had school teachers and that kind of thing, but mostly it was farming.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Something to do with farming.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh, and you mentioned people going to Orlando. that was a special treat. What other kinds of things did people do for fun in town?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Oh, back then they, uh—ball games. They were really into, um, the different ball games, so like baseball, football. The Oviedo, um—had just—the [Oviedo] High School had just started over, at, uh, Career Field, and, uh, they had their first football game—a team for the school’s in 1964—maybe ‘63—but it was a very good team. By 1965, they had, uh, uh—were winning a lot of games, and people really supported them, and, eh, little league and—and all that. people were really into that. I remember [<em>laughs</em>] when we came home from, uh, our honeymoon, the—after we took our luggage to his mother’s house—we went to, uh, a baseball game.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>You know, who does that?</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] But, eh, you know, it was the community thing, I think, uh, maybe because the community was so small, but people were active. If, um, you—even if you didn’t have children playin’ ball, you still wanted to go to support them and be there, and, uh, it was just, like I said, small town U.S.A.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh, great. Um, and so what is Oviedo-life like today? What…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well [<em>laughs</em>]...</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I—I think that, um—I, uh, think that it’s still very neighborly, but more secular. Uh…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I think there’s, uh—you know, people who live out on this side of town sort of do their kind of thing with their kids and their schools, and on the other side of town, the same thing, you know? I think that, uh, it—I—I think Oviedo still sort of has a reputation of being friendly and has that small town atmosphere kind of thing. Um, I don’t know if you’ve looked on the website. There’s an Oviedo community web—website, and people…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Go in with their gripes and—or their happy things, or…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>You know, whatever. So it’s still, uh—technology’s sorta caught up with us, and...</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>But I don’t think in a negative way. I think that’s sort of a good thing.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Great, um, and has—is there anything else that has changed in Oviedo since you’ve lived here that you—that you’ve noticed?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Oh, I’m sure they’re lots of changes that I, you know—of course, they’re building new buildings and tearing down old buildings. Um, citrus has not gained or even [inaudible].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] and citrus is leaving us, and so is, uh, when—when we were first—when I first came here to Oviedo, um, out in Black Hammock, there was celery growing and cabbage and onions, and there was always something growing out there, and Now, there’s really nothing. There’s palm trees, but with the building industry not being too hot, they’re just growing and growing. They’re not being sold, uh, and I don’t even see much sod being sold. Um, uh, we, uh—all that has changed. It’s just not agriculture any more, and, uh, you know, then, uh, it’s modern times. I think people are, um, you know, since we’ve started here, there’s been integration, and so, that’s a big difference in Oviedo. um, people working together of different races and things like that, and I think it’s going pretty well.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Um, so…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Okay, great. Um, so do you have any other stories—memorable stories about your time living in Oviedo, um, while you’ve been living there?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well [<em>laughs</em>]…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>There’s been like the—I think it was, uh, one of the packing houses out on, uh, [Florida State Road] 46 caught on fire. This was in the early maybe 70s—maybe late 60s…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, that was a huge deal. I mean, everybody, uh, was going out to see that fire….</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, but, uh—and of course, there’s been, u, funny things that’s happened, and I—right now, I can’t think of any[<em>laughs</em>], but, uh—you know, personal things—but, uh, eh, Just the change and the times, and the university, like I said, started it all. Uh, people started moving out here and then, because there was now new bedroom communities. Uh, then other businesses, that catered to that, have moved out here. I mean, we’ve got so many food, you know, restaurants and places to get food, and, uh, we don’t—and, you know, we’ve got a [Oviedo] Mall. Who would’ve ever though Oviedo would have a mall, and all these different places? Uh, It’s, uh, a very—like if—if you think back—1965 and today—it’s like two different worlds…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Until you get down to the nitty gritty of it and start talking to people that actually live here. They still—still, I think, sorta have the same mindset.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Maybe I’m wrong, but that’s what I think.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Huh. Um, alright. So what family stories have you heard, uh, about Oviedo’s early history? So before you lived here.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, my, um, mother-in-law, who I, uh, learned so much from, she, uh, came here when she was I think 17—maybe 18 years old—from Lake Monroe, Florida, which is right outside of, uh, Sanford. Uh, she came out here because there was a lady that was running the hotel in Oviedo, that was right where the main red light is, um, in Oviedo. It was sort of east, uh, or south of that, and, uh, since then, of course, it’s burned down, and—but, uh, she came out to actually take care of the lady’s children while the lady ran the hotel. The [?] t turned into—she became like the telephone operator there, and, uh, I think she is noted as the first telephone operator in, uh, Oviedo, because, you know, that was a big deal back then too, and she, uh—that’s where she met her husband.<a title="">[6]</a> Uh, he worked across the way at the packing house with his, you know—his—the people who owned the packing house were relatives of his. Not that—I—I don’t think it was nepotism that he had a job there. It’s just there were not many other places to work, but, um, she met him there, and she learned how to pack fruit just by sittin’ around. I guess that was their courting days, you know?</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>“Here, let me show you how [<em>laughs</em>] to pack fruit.”</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>But, uh—and she used to tell me, um, or she told me once that, uh, she—when they courted, uh, her husband’s, uh, cousin, would loan him his car, and it was a roadster, and I never quite got the concept of what a roadster is, but I do know that, uh, one of the cars that they rode around in had the rumble seat in the back</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Ah.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And when they would double date, she and her husband always had to be in the rumble seat, but when it was just the two of them, they would—a big date would be him taking her to Lake Monroe to visit her parents [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So—but anyway, they, uh—they—she used to tell me stories about how they dressed, and, you know, her husband, um, was sort of dashing. I think he wore this straw, Panama hat or somethin’, and, uh, she was a great seamstress, so she made all her clothes, and she was seamstress for Oviedo. She, uh, made so many wedding dresses for people, and, uh, I think she sewed for about—oh, gosh. I want to say about 40 years…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And she was really great. Uh, she would make you clothes that—as a matter of fact, there was one person in Oviedo that used to take her to, uh, Winter Park, and they would sketch out the dresses in the windows…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And then she would come back and make them for this person, and, you know, for hardly any money at all, and in Winter Park, it would cost like, 20 times whatever she charged…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Because they were very nice dresses, but, uh—and she did that up until she was in her ‘60s.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, everybody loved to have her make them a dress, and she always was—loved to do it, because it was like her calling. It was her art. It was her thing, and, uh, she really enjoyed that very, very much, and, uh, of course, it was the different people that would come there. She had these, um—what do they call them? Dress models?</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, and she had one that was—one lady that was sort of heavy, and that’s what she called it—by this lady’s name, and, um, I’m not saying their names, ‘cause their families all—still are here.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And then there’s another one that the lady was quite tall, and she called it that, and then finally she got this little short, fat, one and she called it Nadine [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And she used to make me my clothes, even when we were stationed in Germany or wherever. She’d send me, uh, my clothes, and they would be perfect every time. So, um, she was very, very talented at that, and I, uh, think that, uh—like I said, I think that it was her art, and she enjoyed doing it, and I think a lot of people, uh, of that era enjoyed working. I don’t think you see that so much anymore.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And I think people, uh, of my father’s age and, uh, Andy’s parents, they just sorta took their job very, very seriously, and it was their thing. It was, you know—they had pride in what they were doing. It wasn’t just—and of course, they had to earn money, and they didn’t earn that much for whatever they were doing, but still it was their—their art. It was their art.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So there’s, um—some of the funny stories would be, uh, Andy’s uncle, eh, Theodore, who they all called Fifi, um, he didn’t [<em>laughs</em>] believe in change. So like, if they put in a traffic light or a stop sign where they never had had one before, he never paid—after he got old, he never paid any attention for—to it.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, he was just—and George, the policeman, would just say, “Well, that’s Uncle Fifi. We just have to watch out for him.” [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And there was other people like that. there were what you call “characters” around the town, and—and that’s what people did—is they just sorta said, uh, “Well, that’s who they are,” and, you know, you just have to watch out for them, and I think that’s where the lovely—lovely thing about Oviedo and small towns everywhere, I’m sure.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And so, uh, don’t know what else…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Yeah, that’s great, um, and you mentioned the—being a telephone or switchboard operator. Um, so what were the name—what was her name? [inaudible]…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Her name was Alice.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Alice?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Mary Alice Aulin.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Um, yeah. Uh, she did that, and, uh, as a matter of fact, when they did the centennial here, I, uh—they recognized her for that, and, um, it was very nice, um, and that was a nice thing too. I don’t know if you, uh—I’m sure you got information about that, but that centennial thing was really a nice thing that Oviedo did. Uh, brought everybody together, and then people that were new got to know more about what was going on. uh…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>There was, like, memorial celery vase.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Have you heard that or seen that? Uh…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>I haven’t seen it. no.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, uh, most of us have one that were around at that time, uh…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And that’s when, um, Mr. Neely’s book<a title="">[7]</a> came out.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, or Miss [Donna] Neely’s. I guess it was Ms. Neely’s. Uh, Dr., uh—what was his name?<a title="">[8]</a> Doesn’t matter.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>That’s okay. Uh, [inaudible] another one of those things that will come to you, but, um, that all sorta gelled at the same time for the centennial, and It was a big celebration, and, um, it was very, very, very nice.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm, nice. Yeah, um, and have you heard any family stories about Andrew Aulin?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Oh, yes, he…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>That you’d like to share.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Was, uh—now, the first Andrew Aulin? You know, there’s…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>The first Andrew Aulin, and then there was my husband’s father, Andrew Aulin, and my husband, Andrew Aulin, and none of them have middle names, and, uh, [<em>laughs</em>]…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So it’s just…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Confusing.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, but anyway, the first one, uh—it’s was my understanding that he traveled a lot before he settled down and came to Florida, but, um, one of the places that he traveled to or was in was, um, Oviedo, Spain. There was a big University [of Oviedo] there, and evidently, he was a scholar, and he had gone to, uh, [Uppsala] University in Uppsala, Sweden. he was Swedish, and, um—so when he came to Oviedo and they decided they were gonna make a town, and as a postmaster, they had him choose the name, he chose Oviedo, because this area reminded him of that town—city—I guess it was—and, uh—so therefore, he named it Oviedo, because—and—and also it had the Spanish name and Florida has a Spanish name—is a Spanish name. So he all thought it all sorta fit.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, um, it’s also my understanding—and this is sorta—I’ve heard people sorta joke about it—that he really cared more about reading and his books and doing scholarly things that, uh, he didn’t really care much about his business. He—he had a business, and I heard someone say—I think it was Mr. W. A. Ward’s father, uh, Bill Ward—said, um, that he would like—and maybe it wasn’t Mr. Ward—but anyway it doesn’t matter—it was somebody from that era—said that, uh, you would go into the mercantile store and say, you know, you wanted—I don’t know, um—seven yards of material or whatever, and he’d say, “Well, it’s back over that way,” and he’d go right back to his book [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh—so whether people paid him or not he wasn’t real [<em>laughs</em>]…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>But I’m sure they all did pay, because it was a different era, again, at that time, but, uh, they said that they[?]—they would often see him sittin’ outside his—his store—just sittin’ there reading a book…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, he—it’s also my understanding that he, uh, taught, was one of the first like little school situations here. Not that it was really a school. I don’t know about that. I just know that he taught people whatever he taught them, I don’t know if it was Greek or, uh, some, uh—something more than just grade school kind of things. I’m not sure about that. I just know that, uh—that was, uh,—has been told to me several times—was that he, um—and it may be even—there’s a letter written by, uh, Steen Nelson, uh, who…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Nelson and Company.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, in that letter, there’s a descript—description of, uh, Andrew Aulin, and, uh, I think in there, he mentions him being a scholar, and, um, his store, and naming the town, and—and those kind of things, and I have—I just thought of it. I think I have a copy of that letter that I’ll try to provide for you, if I can find it. Uh…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Yeah, that’d be great.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, then there’s[sic] other people in town that have a copy of it too, so I’m sure that we can locate it, and that’s sorta interesting too. I don’t know much about Steen Nelson, other than Nelson and Company was originally his business.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, I don’t know if he became a partner with Mr. [Benjamin Franklin] Wheeler[, Sr.], or if the Wheelers just bought it out, or what.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I don’t know that, but, uh, yeah. that’s, uh, how it all started with him.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh, and do, you know, anything about, um, Andrew Aulin’s role as sort of an entrepreneur or stockholder—I think was the word. That I think he was involved in some entrepreneurial ventures with those people. I don’t know if you’ve heard anything about that.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, he probably was…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I mean, because he was very much involved in the very beginning of Oviedo, and if you look at the land, uh, plats from that time, his name’s everywhere.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So I, um—that part though I don’t really know, but I…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Do know that once upon a time, he owned a lot of land in Oviedo, and then I think, by the time he passed, there—he had sold it or, uh—I know that my mother-in-law used to talk about, uh, there were boom times and not-boom times, and, uh, in the boom times, everybody had money and had high hopes, and then it would all crash, and—but that’s all throughout history. You know, they…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>That—early 1900s, and on, and in 1929, and then on and on, and so…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>People would have stuff and then they’d have nothing.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And—but, fortunately, back in those times, if you were a farmer, you could always grow your crop, but—as long as you didn’t have a dust bowl, like they did out West, and that kind of thing, but—yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Okay, um, and have you heard about anything in terms of Andrew Aulin, uh, growing citrus? Have you heard any…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Yes.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Stuff about that? Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>He did. He grew, um,—he had orange groves, um, and I—he had, uh, different properties around. I know that on the, uh, south side of town, uh, he had properties, and then down—what we now call Downtown Oviedo, uh—I think he had properties down there that he grew not oranges on. I think it was, um, other kinds of crops. Uh, I’m thinking strawberries and celery. I don’t think celery was the big thing particularly, at that time. I think celery came along a little later, but, uh, yeah, uh, he did, and I—I that part—I’m sorry to tell ya—I haven’t ever delved into it, but I have always liked to hear the character stories, ya know?</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Yeah, um, and have you heard anything about him as a postmaster, beyond what you were saying? Have you heard any stories about that, or…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Nothing other than him naming the town.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, I don’t know how it came about that he was the first postmaster. Uh, I do know that, uh, prior to that, everybody got their mail from, um, White’s Wharf, but, uh, then I guess they decided they needed a post office in Oviedo.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh, great, and, uh, you mentioned earlier, uh, the Swedish background of the family. Um, do you know anything more about that?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, no, other than they’re from a place, um—it’s a big— it’s a big town in, uh, Ov—I mean Spain, uh—Sweden. Um, it’s right on the—the ocean. I, uh, don’t[?]—I have all this stuff at my house, because, um, I have sort of like a history, but I can’t think of it now. Uh, it’s called “getting old.”</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Did you say before Uppsala? [inaudible]…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, Uppsala was where he went to university.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh, okay. That was the university. [inaudible]…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Yes, he went to school there, and, um, I can’t think of the name of the town where he was born, but that’s as far back as, uh, we’ve been able to go in his genealogy is to that town. Um, it starts with an M. I can’t think of it, but anyway, uh, he—I think it was a relatively young age when he left Sweden. I mean, um, not as a child, but [inaudible] probably in his early, early 20s, and then he traveled, and I think he even lived for a time in, uh, Ohio, and then, um—but it wasn’t until he came to Oviedo that he met his wife,<a title="">[9]</a> who was a Lawton, and, uh, her, uh, family was one of the main fam—founding families of, uh, Oviedo.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, the Lawtons, uh, and Wheelers, and, uh, Aulins—they were sorta—and they sorta—and the Lees—the Lees also is another…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Name. Speaking of Lee, my mother-in-law, when she was a child, went with, uh, her uncle and her father on a, uh, river trip to Rockledge to get some—her uncle was the grocer. So they went on a skiff. She’s always called it that. I don’t know a skiff—from Lake Monroe to, uh, Rockledge, er, you know, by the coast, and, uh, I didn’t even know that the waterway would—would go that far, uh, on the St. Johns [River], but, um, back then, it did for sure, and she talked about how they camped on the way, and—but another person in their party was a gentleman named Thee Lee. I’m thinking his name was Theodore Lee. Uh, uh, I don’t know, but anyway, uh, we called him Thee Lee, and, um, he was a young man and he was—I guess knew her father or the uncle or somethin’. Anyway, he went on this trip with them and he would kill duck or whatever for their supper, and then she would always laugh and she says, “And then, 10 years or so later, I met him, because I was gonna marry his cousin.” So he was…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Andrew’s cousin.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, um—so I—I just thought that was so neat. She was just she had to be under 11 years old, because her father, uh, got killed on the railroad when she was, uh, 11. So she had to be pretty little kid when she went on that trip, but she remembered so much about them killing the geese and roasting them on the fire at night.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And isn’t that an adventure for an 11-year-old? I mean golly.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Yeah, wow.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, sounds so cool [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh, awesome. Yeah, and what else have you heard about the Lawtons, and, uh, Lona Lawton, and everybody?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, um, I just know that, uh, there was a Mr. Lawton, uh, here in Oviedo that, uh, when he—he found out that I was married to—and I worked in a bank—when he found out that I, uh, was married to an Aulin, uh, his wife would send me cookies every once in a while.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Aw.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And also Andy’s cousin’s wife lived there, uh—worked there, and so they were all—they were very kind to us, uh, just because of the relationship, I guess, and, um, I just thought that that was so cool that he would, uh—that she would do that, and now, I can’t remember which Lawton they were, because, uh, at that time, there was[sic] several older Lawtons living in Oviedo.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh—but that was so cool that he—that she would send us those cookies just because we were [<em>laughs</em>]…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Aulins. It was just this family ties, I guess, but, um, the—I’m trying to think of some of the—there was, um, a lot of Lawtons. Uh, I think there was like—it was of two different mothers, but there was like a bunch of ‘em. I—I’m wantin’ to say eight, or maybe even more than eight…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Children, and, um, so they, um, settled here in Oviedo, and then, uh, I’ve since learned that there’s some Lawtons of that same group that live up in, uh, Northwest Florida.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, I’ve been in contact with their, um, great-grandchildren, um, but, uh, they—they were big farmers, and, um—then also, I think they, uh, were teachers, and, uh, I know that, um, another one of my husband’s aunts was a teacher, and she, uh, married a gentleman and they lived out—and went out to live out in Texas, and that’s where the original Andrew Aulin died. He was in Texas. that’s where he’s buried—is in Texas, because he was living out there with his daughter, and, um—but yeah, they—I think they sort of have a—a legacy of teaching and farming.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm, yeah. Um, have you heard anything about, uh, Lona Lawton as—and her role as a switchboard operator after the [World] War [I]?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Lona Lawton?</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Or Alice Aulin?</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Um, I believe it was Lona Lawton that they mentioned in the book.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Nah, I…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Maybe.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>What war?</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Um, I said after World War—World War I?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, that would have had to have been Andy’s mother,</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Alice.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Mary Alice Aulin.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[inaudible].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Because Lona Lawton…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Was, um, Andrew’s mother.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And she died before, um, Andy’s mother met him.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So I—she met him, um, around 1920.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Something like that.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Um, maybe twe—even ’22—something like that, ‘cause she was, uh—well, she was born in 1904, and, um, so she was only like 18 in ’22, so yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So Lona had—had died…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Ah.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Before then.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, and she, uh—I think way before then. I think in the early 1900s.<a title="">[10]</a> Uh, Andy’s father was the youngest child, and he was born in like 18-something.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Like, uh, 1893, I’m thinking—somewhere in that area.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So, yeah, she had been dead a long time.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm, mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Um, so it wasn’t her. It was Andy’s mother, and I don’t remember, um, I mean it was after World War I that she, uh, did that because, uh, she was like 18 when she started.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And then, at one point, uh, she got married and—but then, at a later time, they came and put the switchboard in her house.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Ah.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>They lived on Graham [Avenue].</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And then she ran it from there, and then, um, another time, when she lived on Myrtle Street, they’ve[sic] moved it there, and she—but she had the—it, like, blew up in her ear, or…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I don’t know what you’d call it. Uh, it had a short somehow and it made her, uh, almost deaf in one ear from doing that, and that was—I think that was like in the ‘30s…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>When that happened.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>And have you heard anything about Andrew Aulin’s experience in World War I, uh, so [inaudible].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Yes, I know that he was, um, uh—now, this is Andrew Aulin, Jr.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh, okay, sorry.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, Andy’s father—my husband’s father.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>He was, uh, in, um, France during World War I, and he was, um, gassed. He got injured, uh, or, you know, not wounded, but, uh, harmed or disabled, uh, somewhat, by having, uh, gas, because, you know, that was the war when they did the—did that. he was in the trenches, and one of the funny or odd things, I think, is, um, they don’t eat—eat potatoes very much in the Aulin family, uh, or that part of the Aulin family, because all he got to eat when he was, uh, overseas was potatoes, and he said he hoped he never saw another potato, so…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] Andy’s mother cooked rice every day, and, uh, when I got married, I cooked rice every day for many, many years, and then I finally taught my husband that, you know, life will go on without rice, so [<em>laughs</em>]</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] [inaudible].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>But, uh, rice was the big thing. They ate rice instead of potatoes, and another thing, because of his, uh, eating habits, or lack of, when he was over there, uh, he wouldn’t eat gravy that was white—you know, made with milk.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Because that was just—that’s all they got over there—was white gravy. Er, he thought it had no taste. So Mrs. Aulin—even if the gravy didn’t come out dark enough, she would put like instant coffee in it or somethin’ to make it dark.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] And that’s a good trick.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>It makes it taste better, if you just put a li’l coffee in it.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Huh [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>That’s one of the tricks I’ve learned from her, uh, but yeah. I don’t know of any, uh—I just know that he went over there, uh, and got more or less wounded, and, uh, that whole family, I think, is, uh, been in World War—his—my husband’s oldest—older brother<a title="">[11]</a> was in World War II and in the Korean War. My husband was in, uh, [the] Vietnam [War], and, um, so they’ve all, you know, served their country.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[inaudible].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And I, uh, think that’s sorta something that most of the people in Oviedo did. I mean, there was a lot of people in Oviedo that, uh, served in World War II, and, uh, even some of the people that weren’t in the military, they served by, uh, manning the—they had a tower that they watched for…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Airplanes and what have you, like a civil defense kind of thing…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, I know that Andy’s sisters did some of that and the, uh, other girls in town, uh, volunteered to do that, and there was—the tower was downtown, uh, by the red light too…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>h huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>From what I understand. I think that’s where it was. Have to ask somebody who was here then, but I think that’s where it was from the stories...</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>They tell.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm, um, and you mentioned some of the founding families of Oviedo. What—is there anything else—any other stories you know about them, or, um—besides [inaudible]…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, I do know that, uh, it—I think this is sort of funny. Uh, When I came and I was living with Andy’s aunt and she would mention someone or I would mention someone, and she would say something like, “Oh, they’re one of the new people.”</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] And I would say, “Oh, when did—when did they come to Oviedo?” And she says, “Oh, I think they came in like the 20s.”</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] And—she—her family was the Jacobs, and they—her father settled on—at—at Lake Pickett…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Way back in the 1800s. Uh, his brother settled on Lake Mills.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And then his sister was married to, uh, a Kilby, I think, and they settled in, um, Geneva on Lake Harney.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So it—out of the same family, they all settled on lakes, and then Aunt Nettie married, uh, an Aulin, and so she was like from first—a first family of two different places, and, uh, she used to say—and not only she—when I would first come to Oviedo and I’d be like at my grandmother’s, somebody would say, uh, “Oh, we’d better get back to Oviedo before the creek rises,” or if you were in Oviedo, uh, they would say, “Well, we’d better get back to Chuluota before the creek rises,” and Aunt Nettie explained to me what that was—is that once upon a time there was a—a low bridge, where the regular bridge is going from Oviedo to Chuluota, but it was a low bridge, and if the water got high, you couldn’t go across it, because you couldn’t see the bridge, and, uh, so it was true that if it was raining or something like that and the bridge got overflowed, then you were stuck. You had to…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] stay there. So that’s why they said that. They—and they still say it as far as I know, to this day, “If, you know—if the creek rises, we’d better,” just as a sort of joke or whatever, and, um, I [<em>laughs</em>] always thought that—well, I liked it when I found out what it—what it meant, and there was something else I was gonna tell you around those lines, but, um, every little town has its—its little sayings, and funny things, and, um—but I can’t think of what else I was gonna tell you. Anyway…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh [<em>laughs</em>]. So tell me about, um, you mentioned some of the artifacts that you had, um, so tell me a little bit about what those were or if you have any stories about them.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, I don’t really have any artifacts. I have some copies of things that…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, have been handed to me, because of my interest in genealogy.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, I have, uh, copies of some pages out of a Lawton, uh, Bible that, uh—these people I’ve met in Northwest Florida—and it has, of course, the names of people that were here, you know, like, uh, Lona, and Narcissa [Melissa Lawton], and those, um, Lawtons, and, um, then I have, uh, different, you know, writings, and newspaper clippings, and, um, things like that. I had some, um, things that belonged to my husband’s, um, father, but I sent them to, uh—or had his grandmother send them—send them to her son—her grandson in Tennessee, because he was interested in that stuff…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And not many people, you know, really are, and so…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I thought that would be a good thing for him to have, but as far as, uh, actual hold-it-in-your-hand kind of thing, other than copies and—and writings, I don’t— I don’t really have anything.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh, and what were some of the things that were sent? what were some of the, um…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, well, I’ve got, uh—we have a copy of, uh, Nar—Narcissa’s diary.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>A portion of it that she did</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>In World War…</p>
<p>[<em>child cries</em>]</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I mean in the Civil War.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, and that’s very interesting.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Wow.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And I mean it really takes you back in—in time.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And there—one of the things she writes about is, uh, having to make, uh, shoes for, uh, some of the people that worked there, and she didn’t—obviously, they were slaves, but she didn’t call them that.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Hm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>It was “our people,” you know?</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And she had to make them some shoes, and, uh, she talked about the war, and, she, you know—she heard bad news that would come down from Virginia, and she was in, uh—right outside Thomasville, Georgia, is where they lived at that time.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, it’s really, really a treasure having—having that, uh, but it’s, uh, a copy of it, and it’s, uh—I don’t even know who’s got the original. Oh, I do. I[?] happen to be—the original, uh, got washed away in a flood they had out in Texas, where…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Where it was—where it was kept, uh, which is regrettable, ‘cause, I mean, now it’s gone, but fortunately, we all have—or not all of us—but a lot of us have copies of it.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Wow[?].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So that’s really, really another treasure.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, then I have these like—I think I had already told you—these copies of that—pages out of that Bible, where they note the family happenings—you know, deaths, births—that kind of thing—weddings, Um, and like—like I said, the Steen, uh, Nelson letter. I’ve got, I think, probably, uh, all the books and things that were written, and—and I have treasures from the, um, centennial, and newspaper clippings, and things like that.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Awesome, very cool. Um, so are there any other stories that you want to share about—in general, that you’ve been thinking about? Um…</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, I, you know—I can sit here and tell you stories, uh, about, uh, my mother-in-law [inaudible], but I don’t know if they would have any interest to, um—I mean, it’s just—you would just be interested if you were her granddaughter or something like that, you know? It’s just sorta family things.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>But, um, Aunt Nettie, uh, as I said, you know—she—her husband was the one they called “The Judge.” he was the Justice of the Peace, and, um, she, um, also had, uh—it wasn’t a boarding house, but she had extra rooms in her house, and there was a time when the railroad people were working here or whatever, uh, and, you know, Oviedo used to be really busy with all of the fruit, vegetables being shipped in and outta here—or being shipped out of here.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, um, so she would, um, let out a room to these people that work for the railroad, and, uh, she used to tell me little saying—like one of ‘em would, uh, put cheese in his coffee, and [<em>laughs</em>]…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>I’ve never heard of that before, and then she would always say, uh—she was a swe—sweet, old lady. She was so precious, and she would say, uh, “Nadine, you want some cheese in your coffee?” I said, “No, Aunt Nettie. I don’t want any cheese in my coffee.”</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>That’s what the man would say. He would say…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>“I want some cheese for her coffee.” [<em>laughs</em>]</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Just little stories like that…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>You know, that doesn’t mean anything to anybody, but…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Just, uh, you had to know the people. You had to be there, you know, sort of thing. So…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh, great, and, um, so do you have any last words about maybe what impact that your relatives and—have had in the town in the early history or just any other thoughts about Oviedo’s history in general?</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Well, I [inaudible]—I think that Oviedo has a, uh—a good history, you know? You don’t really think of too many bad things happening in Oviedo. I don’t know—don’t know that I recall anything bad. I did[?]—I know that there’s been some, uh—there used to be a prison camp out on the way to Winter Park, on that road.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, I think there was an escape, uh—escape there, and I think, uh, that’s when Mr. John Courier[sp] got hurt. Now, this you’re gonna have to talk to other people about, because I don’t really know, but I do know that there’s been things like that that have happened…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>That are tragic.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>But, um, I—I don’t know any firsthand information about that, and—but as far as Oviedo is concerned, I think that, uh, like I said in the beginning, the—the churches is[sic] what it was all based on, and I think pretty much, it still has that, uh, heritage, that rock, that—that keeps it sorta held together, and I think all that’s important. Uh, we have a lot more churches now than just the Methodist and the Baptist.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And, uh, the, uh, church that’s, uh, mainly black people on the, uh, way out of town…</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Uh, I think that’s been there for years and years and years and years, and, uh, I noticed the other day, it’s growing like gangbusters, just like the other churches.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>And that’s really great, and that’s really a good foundation, and I think that they’ve—we’ve maintained that foundation.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Uh huh.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>So that’s a good thing.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>Great, alright. Well, thank you so much for talking with us. this was really helpful.</p>
<p><strong>Aulin<br /></strong>Oh, well, thank you. I hope that it was. I, uh, enjoyed it. Sorta nice bringing those memories back. Sorry I couldn’t remember some things.</p>
<p><strong>Schneider<br /></strong>No, no. It’s—that’s great.</p>

Orlando Collection
Description
The Orlando area was originally occupied by the Creek and Seminole tribes. In 1838, Fort Gatlin was erected on the shores of Lake Gatlin, just a few miles south of present-day Downtown Orlando. Centered around Church Street, Orlando became a city in 1884.<br /><br />Originally a cattle town, Orlando grew into a major citrus growing center by the 1920s. The city continued to grow during the Great Depression with aid from the Work Progress Administration (WPA). During World War II, Orlando became a major military center as well, with the development of the McCoy Air Force Base and Pinecastle Air Force Base, and with the addition of the Naval Training Center (NTC) Orlando in 1968. Downtown Orlando declined in the 1960s and 1970s. Redevelopment began in the 1970s and continued into the 1980s, with projects such as the Church Street Station entertainment complex. In 1998, a building boom began and continued through the 2000s.

Description
The new Downtown Orlando Post Office building, located at 51 East Jefferson Street, in 1958. The original post office was housed in the Federal Building, located 44 East Central Boulevard in Downtown Orlando, Florida, from 1917 to 1941. In 1935, when James Beggs, Jr. became the postmaster, he began petitioning to move the post office from its Central Boulevard and Court Avenue location to a more spacious building. In 1939, St. James Catholic Church sold a plot of land on Jefferson Street for the new building. The building was designed by Louis A. Simon in the Northern Italian Palazzo Revival-style, and was constructed by J. P. Cullen and Sons. The new building opened in 1941 and housed the post office, the courthouse, and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) offices. The building was named an Orlando Historic Landmark in 1989. However, it was eventually sold back to the St. James Church. In 2003, the building was renovated and came under joint ownership by both the church and the federal government. Today, the building retains its post office services but also includes offices for the Catholic Diocese.

St. Joseph's Academy Boys Basketball Team, 1929
Description
St. Joseph's Academy's seven-member boys basketball team standing in a wooded area in 1929. St. Joseph's Academy, located at 53 East Jefferson Street in Downtown Orlando, Florida, opened on October 17, 1889, with just 40 students. The school, built by Father J. J. Creed of St. James Cathedral, was to serve the children of St. James Church until 1929, when a new Italian Renaissance-style school was opened at 505 East Ridgewood Street between Cathcart Avenue and Hillman Avenue. The school stood at the northeast corner of the church property at Main Street and Robinson Street, where the U.S. Post Office now stands in Downtown Orlando on 51 East Jefferson Street. Photographed from left to right are Franklin Zane, Jack Spellman, Eugene Jane, Paul Yochum, Ray Jane, and Fred Yochum would be the last basketball team of St. Joseph Academy.

Description
Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Oviedo, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around.
Oviedo began on the south shore of Lake Jessup as a settlement called Solaria's Wharf. Some of its early settlers include Dr. Henry Foster, Joseph Watts, and Steen Nelson. Citrus and celery dominated the area's farmland, although Central Florida suffered a severe freeze in 1894. Oviedo suffered another disaster in 1914 when a fire wiped out much of the downtown section. Disaster hit again in 1929 with the Wall Street Crash and the beginning of the Great Depression. That same year, Oviedo's fruit crops were decimated by a fruit fly infestation. Another fire destroyed the Wheeler Fertilizer Plant in 1946. Nonetheless, Oviedo continued to grow, with new paved roads going to Geneva and Chuluota and the opening of the Citizens Bank of Oviedo in 1948. In 1949, Oviedo began receing once-a-day bus serviece to Orlando from Greyhound Lines. By 1950, Oviedo was the second largest town in Seminole County, following Sanford. The Oviedo City Hall was built that same year and in 1968, Florida Technological University (present-day University of Central Florida) opened, bringing new residents to the area.

Transcript
<p><strong>Mikler</strong><br />Well, the—in the early 19—around the 1900, there was a great immigration to America from Europe [<em>clears throat</em>], and my parents came to—as most Slovak immigrants came—they came into New York Harbor and then went wherever they could.</p>
<p>So they organized—the group organized what they called “the Slavia Colony Company.” And they sent a delegation to Florida—the company did—to find a location for a new settlement. A small group came to Florida and settled here.<a title="">[1]</a> And they settled here somewhere around 1911, and, um, most of those people were poor folks. They were used to farming, so they had farming on their mind[sic]. They knew how to farm better than most other things, so this is how the colony originated.</p>
<p>Now, the building we’re sitting in right now didn’t look like this then, but the first [St. Luke’s Lutheran] Church was built about 1925. This is it. I—I keeps[sic] coming back to this. You can’t separate our community from the church, ‘cause the church—the Lord was important to all, and—and that was—not that we were saints. We’re sinners like everybody, but the Lord meant something to us, and still does to us today.</p>
<p>The—the first settlers had difficulty finding a crop—a cash crop—that would be a money crop, you see? Uh, they tried different things, but not knowing the weather, soil conditions, and so forth, they made a lot of mistakes. There were disasters, and so it was not until the—I’d say the middle- to late- [19]20s when celery was introduced and celery became the big cop.</p>
<p>And just a case in point: this happened in the 40s. Judge [R. W.] Ware, the County Judge of Seminole County, spoke to the Oviedo PTA [Parent-Teacher Association], and this is some of what he said: he said, “Folks, you know, if—if all Seminole County was like the Oviedo community”—now, we’re talking about Oviedo, Slavia, Chuluota, and Goldenrod, and Wagner, the long—the—he said, “I’d be out of a job.” Now, what’s the moral to that? People did the right thing and crime was insignificant.</p>
<p>Well, believe it or not, when I was a teenager, my cousin had—a few people had automobiles. I remember getting the first [Ford] Model T, and I was about the happiest person in the world, riding on the back of that Model T. That wasn’t riding a wagon. It was different, but then later, as we grew up as teenagers, I remember we’d go and get a car from the [inaudible], and go to town, and park on the street, and watch people walk by. We’d buy us about 10 cents worth of bananas, which is about 15 or 20 pounds, you might say [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p>I remember when [Florida State Road] 426 was dirt, and going to Orlando, on a wagon, you got up early in the morning, and it would take all day to get to Orlando and back home before darkness, and that was some—some experience. There were no public restrooms. If you got thirsty, you had to carry your own water. It was just a different world. In fact, I remember between Winter Park and Orlando, there were very few homes. Lake Ivanhoe was a wooded lake. It was just woods there. [inaudible] water in[?] the horse on Lake Ivanhoe.</p>
<p>And some of you may not believe this, but you could go today in [inaudible] grocery store—the big one, you know? And they—the housewife—whoever was shipping—would take the list to the counter, and the storekeeper would take the order. If you wanted five pounds of sugar, he’d go the shelves, get five pounds of sugar, bring it back. “What else? Five cans of beans?” He’d bring that, and so that was sort of different from today, and then when Papa took us once a year to the Slemons [Department Store], the big store on Church Street, right on—off of Orange Avenue. Uh, Papa would tell Mr. [William Melville] Slemons, “Here’s the family. Dress ‘em up.” So we got our new shirts, pants, suit, cap, shoes, and all that, and that was quite an experience. The whole family went shopping. You see that today? I don’t think so.</p>
<p><strong>Unidentified<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Mikler<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>]. I think the worst influence we ever had in the history of the world is drugs—the cocaine, and this sort of stuff. This—I feel for kids, I feel for parents, ‘cause I know some of the finest people I know have had cases of that, and—and it’s hard—it’s hard—it’s a hard problem to face, but we must face it squarely, and most people in America—early America—immigrants and otherwise—had to do it [inaudible]—do it themselves. The government was not involved in these things. He said they took Bible and prayer out of school, and they gave prostitution, cocaine, and alcohol, and pornography. That’s how he started his sermon. Now, he was on the money, wasn’t he?</p>
<p>Well, one thing I—as a coach, I couldn’t stand—I don’t think I’d allow a player who put a helmet on with hair longer than girl’s hair, but that…</p>
<p><strong>Unidentified<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Mikler <br /></strong>I couldn’t stand [<em>laughs</em>]. I couldn’t—I couldn’t stand it. I’m afraid we’re coming to an age, where it’s almost me first. Case in point: when I was teaching, uh, I could ask boys to help move the piano or to help the school do a job, and I’d have volunteers coming. No one asked for any money. It was all voluntarily and they did it with a smile. The later years, it wasn’t so. They said, “Coach, whatcha payin’?” You know, that’s—that’s what we’re into today.</p>
<p>It’s hard to say what’s coming, but I can see a great change between, uh, family and community and state and nation. So the family unit— I’m afraid—and our modern civilization, uh—it’s a different—it’s a more difficult world to live in. The future, I hope will be good, but it just depends on how we are willing to discipline ourselves and—and accept absolutes. It’s easy to do wrong, it’s hard to do right, and we gotta make the choices. We have that choice.</p>

<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>My name is Stephanie Youngers. Today is November 19, 2010, and I am interviewing Mrs. Mart Tucker and Mr. Cecil Tucker here at the Museum of the Seminole County History. How are we all today?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>We’re doing great.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Just fine [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Good. Well, we’re going to start where and when you were born.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Okay. I was born in Fort Pierce. January 19<sup>th</sup>, 1932.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>And when did you come to the area here?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well—here?</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Did you move around a lot before you moved to the Seminole/Orange County area?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No. I remember—the thing that I remember first was when we moved to the two-story house on Lake Barton—Little Lake Barton Road<a title="">[1]</a>—out just outside of Orlando. And we lived there for about 12 years, I think. And then Daddy, of course—he was going up and down the state when the tick eradication was on. And when that was over, he then became a foreman of the ranch south of Christmas. And, so when he was in the tick eradication, he never knew where he would be moved to another place. And so we rented the house that we lived in for about 10 or 12 years.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Wow.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>But, this[sic] was[sic] the [World] War [II] years, and you couldn’t find housing in Orlando. And somebody found that house, and bought it, so we had to find another place. And couldn’t go out to the ranch, because there was no school bus going there.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>How far was the ranch from civilization?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, it was 18 miles south of the main highway.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, wow.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>That was 18 miles south of Christmas. And Christmas was 20 miles from Orlando.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Wow. And you went to school in Orlando?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yes. Well, when that house was bought. If you worked for the company, they would give you housing in Holopaw. And the ranch was—that he was foreman of—was…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Osceola County.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, it was in Osceola County, but it was owned by the Holopaw outfit. And therefore, we went to Holopaw. And we lived there. Best year of my life—well, not really.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>But I had lots of fun out there in Holopaw. Mother was—helped to do out the—what is it?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>The commissary. Food stamps.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No, the—food stamps and things. Still the war—we still had that. And that was in the commissary. So I’d come to the commissary and I’d help the guys put cans up in that grocery department, and then I’d go to a guy that cuts up all the meat, and I’d do help there. And then at the end of the week, they would do their hand in their pocket and give me out some change. And I still have the .22 rifle that I bought with that money.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, my goodness. So, the commissary—that was like the grocery store?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>That was out in Holopaw.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yes. Because you didn’t have to go to town if you need clothes or, if you need…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>That was P. V. Wilson Lumber Company. Big outfit.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, okay. Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>And they’re not there anymore. Not at all.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>No. they’re not. Do you know—what is the school that you attended?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, I went to the school in—what is it? I had it down here. The city that was…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Holopaw.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No, no, no. They had to go out.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Fort Pierce?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>St. Cloud?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>St. Cloud. St. Cloud. Rode into there.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>That’s still quite a drive. I’ve been down that road.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yes. It was.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>And they had a grammar school there, or…</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No. I don’t think so.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>What—in St. Cloud?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No. in Holopaw they did.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>But in St. Cloud? Did you attend grammar school? Or was it a large school? Or was it a small place?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Just regular. St. Cloud.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>It wasn’t that large.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Wasn’t anything like Orlando. But it was bigger than Holopaw.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>And you all lived in Holopaw for a year?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Just a year.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>When did you—where did you go after you left there?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, when we left there, the ranch was just officially our home. But Mom and us—well, there’s[sic] four girls at the time—had not yet finished all high school. So we went into Orlando and rented in Orlando until my twin sister and I…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, you’re a twin, too? Wow.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Tell us about your brothers and sisters.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, hm. Well, Sally [Albritton] and Betty [Albritton]. Helen [Albritton] was the oldest. And then I had a brother, Boots [Albritton], that[sic] was about, I guess, four years younger than she. And then there was two sets of—Sally and Betty. And then there was Miriam [Albritton] and Margaret [Albritton].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>So two sets of twins? Goodness.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Two sets of twins. Twenty months apart.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, my goodness.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>You can figure why I guess she had her tubes tied. Didn’t need any more kids. And what else did you…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Well, just tell us about your brothers and sisters, because that…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers <br /></strong>Did you all help out at home a lot on the ranch?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, see, we didn’t live on the ranch. I was privy to be able to—well, in the sixth and seventh grade, Daddy would go out for two weeks in the summer. And even then, on Wednesday, he would let me ride. I’d cow-hunt with him. I sat up on horse, and all that. He was my dad, but you took care of whatever you was supposed to do. So I loved to cow-hunt. We’d ride all day. We’d ride all morning and then have lunch and take a snooze before we rode some more. So you could get tired of it, but I didn’t.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>How about your brother?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, my brother, Boots—he was out at the ranch. He married and was out at the ranch. But he—he didn’t stay there very long. Thing of it is, you have to not let hollerin’ at you bother you, because when you’re having to do something, or things are quick—and Daddy hollers at you to do something—you don’t get out of sorts, because that’s just the way it is. But he couldn’t take it. And so he went into Orlando there.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Now, did your other sisters do this with you too?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>She was, um—Mart<a title="">[2]</a> was the only boy.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>They didn’t. They didn’t never come out to the ranch when for—you know, like I did.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Her dad said that he had a pretty good cowhand in her until I came along and started courting her and messed it up [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] Oh, well, you could have jumped in and helped us. No.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>When you went to the high school in Orlando, were you part of any groups or anything there? Did you have any kind of social functions that you attended?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, I was athletic. So we had a group—a club—that I was head of. And as far as us girls that were athletic were concerned, we stayed after school and played the different sports that were available at that part of the year.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>What were some of the sports that y’all played?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Speedball was one. Of course, basketball. Volleyball.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Softball?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah, yeah. Softball. I was pitcher. But my main thing in high school was sports. And that and makin’ honor society.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>What about rifle team?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, I forgot about the rifle team.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>You were on the rifle team too?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, we had a rifle club. I got a picture home, shows this old, oh, eight or ten boys and girls up there with their rifles, out from the school building there. Now, can you imagine? They’re letting people bring rifles to school today? [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, yeah. Were the boys a little put off by the fact that you could shoot a rifle?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, no. No.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>No? They liked that? They weren’t afraid?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>I still have the rifle. Oh, when I was in Holopaw, and the guys—well, did I say that? And the guys, when they would give me money…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>And you bought your .22.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah, that’s when I bought that .22. When I was in the eighth grade. So…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, wow. And they let you buy it all by yourself?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>See, can’t do that anymore either.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>[inaudible] Right, yeah. That was better days.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Yeah. And from high school, you went to University of Florida. Did you do that right out of high school, or did you take some time in between?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No, I went right out of high school and I was going to major in animal husbandry. And, when did I see you first?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>The summer before you went up there.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, I can’t…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>You saw him here back home?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>When my sister and I graduated from high school, then the ranch was our home. And that’s where I lived. And our post office was in Christmas. We’d go into Orlando to get groceries and stuff, and so one of those days before I went off to college, got the mail, came out and told Mom, “Oh, I saw the postmaster’s son. He was waiting—in there waiting on customers.” She said, “Oh, you should have told him you’re one of the lucky ones. You’re going to be in Reid Hall.” And I was really surprised that Mother would want me to—but I knew what—she was afraid I was going to get homesick at university and didn’t know anybody, and at least I would know one person. Of course, since I was a beginner there, I had to go a week early for the week of orientation. Well, it just so happens there’s this guy sitting on the steps of the big building we were waiting for something, the next thing to be done. But because he was a transfer student…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>I had to go to orientation too.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>He had to do the same. And so that’s where I really met him. And, of course, we went to the frat[ernity] house and met all those guys.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Yeah. He said he used to invite you to dinner every week to come have dinner with him and all the boys there.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Of course, he made sure to tell everyone one of them—oh, man. Whole house full of guys, you know. He told every one of them, “Hands off.” Never did give—well, he was out of town, he had to go home for his teeth or something, and old McGregor—tall, lanky fellow—asked me out. And I had already planned to do ironing and what not, but I said, “No.” That was the only…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>The only opportunity you had. He hadn’t gotten a word yet at that point.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah. He hadn’t gotten to the frat house yet. But that was great. And I went that one year. But if I really wanted to go again back, I’m sure money would have been able to be found. Mother had an operation that took what normally would have sent me, but by then, I was…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Sidetracked.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, yeah. I was wanting to get a job and save up money so that whenever we were—we were getting pretty close, and so I didn’t mind not going back to work there. I worked there and I forget where it was in Orlando, but then we were married.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Jacob’s Packing House.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah. That’s it.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>So when he finished out his education up there…</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No, when he finished his—see, he had his first year in Orlando. Second year when I was up there too, and then the third year before—which way was it? We got married before he was graduated from college.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>So, did you stay down here?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Yeah. You did. You stayed one year working at Jacob’s.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>After we were married?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>No. Not after we were married, before we were married.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, the next year, then what?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Then we got married and you moved to Gainesville with me.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>And I got a job in the animal husbandry department at Typhus. I was supposed to type this book they were wanting to have. And they ended up finally making it not a book, but something else. And they—do you remember?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>It was a book, but go ahead.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, anyway. That was—we had a lot of fun up there. One professor’s—of course I was a typist. They would give their handwritten stuff, and I would type it up. So I typed up this test that was going to be given out. And I went back to the fellow and I handed him the typed thing. And I had his handwritten, I says[sic], “Do you want this? I usually give it to Cecil.” He says, “Don’t.” [<em>laughs</em>]</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>At that point, I was working on my Master’s [Degree].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh. They didn’t want him having the test questions.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Of course, she was teasing, but…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Aww.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Those were good men in the ag[riculture] —animal husbandry. Until I was pregnant with Miriam [Tucker].</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>They weren’t good after that?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah. They were, but—then I was no longer working. So, what else is there to be said?</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>When you all had twins too, right?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Goodness gracious.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>We had a little girl first. Then had twins. And Dr. Hoffman from Orlando—he saw to things. I mean, here I was pregnant, but in Gainesville, and we’d come home for, you know—back and forth. And in Thanksgiving—I think it was—came home and stayed.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>But now the twins were born in Ocala. They were born in Orlando, while we were living in Ocala.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>True, true. Okay, so, it’s Ocala still. And he informed me that he’d tied my tubes. He contended with three on the ground, and coming in two’s, I didn’t need—and his financial status at the time, we couldn’t afford to have any more. To me, that was the best thing. That just made life so much easier, to not worry about getting pregnant.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers</strong><br />Right.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Good deal.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Right. And when you all moved back to this area, it was so that Mr. Tucker could take his job at the Extension Office?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Right.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah, when were first in Ocala, and then…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>We were in Ocala for two years. I was Assistant County Agent in Marion County. And then we came here. I was [Seminole] County Agent and we came—I think it was in 1957.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>What else we got here?</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>What else did you do back here? Did you go back to work, or did you stay home?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, what did I do? Cecil?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>You had three children. What do you think you did? [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Alright. We were living out by…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Christmas.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Well, first we lived in Rosalia Drive.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>In Sanford. In about 1960, we moved out on old Orlando Highway.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>We had acreage there—oranges and pasture. Well, that was one. And we had cattle. Cecil was workin’ at the dairy and he—they had calves that weren’t going to be dairy cattle. And we started building up a herd there.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>It was 1956 that we came here.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>But whatever had to be done with cattle and whatnot around the place, I usually did it. Because he had to go to work. We were feeding out—how many? Seven steer? That year?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Well, y’all raised a bunch of heifer yearlings first. And later on it was about 10 steers that y’all fattened up.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>What do you mean, “Y’all?”</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>You [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>In other words, the kids didn’t help out.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /> </strong>Well, they probably had to go to school or something. It was probably wasn’t in the summertime or not. But that’s…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>So, you did a lot of work.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, and also, we had some cattle…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Lake Osprey[sp]. North of Osteen.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>And so I primarily would go out there and check the cows or take them feeding. And he wasn’t always with me.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Right.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>We’d do it real nice [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>About 1960, we moved out to Citrus Heights—Ginderville[sp] [Heights], or near Ginderville[sp]. And that’s when we were able to have a lot more cattle she could look after, and the kids could have 4-H projects.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>And really, what was really nice was there was an old house down the way, and Mom and Dad were able to—he kept the livestock market in Orlando. They lived there until finally when he retired. And this little house—with Daddy’s expertise on carpentry and stuff, they made the house a nice little place and lived there.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>So you were close to your Mom and Dad. Oh, good.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Mmhmm.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>And you were—when you were part of the women’s club for the [Seminole County] Farm Bureau, was that while Mr. Tucker was working at the Extension Office?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>It was after that, when we started a store in 1972. And at that point, I became president of Seminole County Farm Bureau. And it was a law in there that she became chairman of the women’s—deal.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>What did you do while you were on that board there?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>I knew that would be asked. I don’t know. Well, when we would have the whole group would have an annual meeting, and supper, and whatnot. Of course, I was involved in getting all that prepared. Getting tables right and things like that.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Did you help set, like, regulations? Or were the ladies involved in that way?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Not much. Not much. It was primarily just providing information of programs of what was available to them and what was going on.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /> </strong>Okay. Very good.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>But also, when we moved out to Citrus Heights area, you became more active in 4-H. Because the boys became active in 4-H.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>And did they raise heifers?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No, they raised chickens.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Chickens and pigs.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil </strong>And they did raise heifers, but they never did raise any to show.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>At one point, they won all of the trophies [<em>laughs</em>]. With the chickens at the show.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, yeah. They felt kind of bad, I guess. Or we did [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>They raised all the best chickens.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>I can see why. They had the best of help.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /> </strong>They had the best parents. That’s right.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Help ‘em learn.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Good.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, goodness.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>But when we’d have our annual 4-H contest and things, she was in involved in helping us judge things like the lamp contest and making lamps.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>They make lamps? Really?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Yeah, and electrical, you know—learn things about electricity. And she also judged these speaking contests.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>The what?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Speaking contests.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, yeah. Okay. A lot of this I don’t remember [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>That’s okay.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>I remember him, so far [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>That’s important.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>But it’s been really, really great being involved in those kind of things. Being around with the kids, and…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>We—we started the store in 1972. Were you involved in that?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Slightly. I always brought the main attraction of the store. And where did we find that little pig?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>My son-in-law found him. He was a little wild pig. And he was so young that he still had, you know, fawn with half-spots on it. Wild pigs have similar spots as well.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>So he became mine. And did he have a collar on?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Yes.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>A leash. Because when he was littler, if I was going to go mail something…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Or deposit something. Make a deposit at the bank.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>I would take him along down the streets of Sanford and take him in on a leash and finally he got bigger and bigger and bigger. And he’d come up on the porch. I’d chain him up there out of the sun.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>At the store?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah. At the store. But he would come in, I’d bring him in to the store in the car. And he would be in the front seat. And one day I went there, heard someone said, “Hey!” I saw somebody on the corner there with a friend, who went on to work. She told me later she said, “The person said, ‘Was that a pig?’” And she said, “Oh, that’s Mart Tucker. That’s all she can get to ride with her.” [<em>laughs</em>] What a good friend. So a car would stop in the middle of the street from the store and the lady would get out, come up the steps, and give something to Pete right there, and go down, get in her car, and go off.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>It was a daily ritual with her to give him some piece of candy. Something.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Some edible thing.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>So they would just come up and give him treats then.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Yeah [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>So how long did you have him for?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Until we finally, I quit bringing him in to the…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>He got to be about 700-800 pounds.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Wow. Yeah. You wouldn’t be toting him around too much.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>So he had a place there, at the barn at the house, and I guess…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>He got an infection. Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Well, he got to be an awfully big boy, so…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil <br /></strong>He did.<br /><br />[<em>phone rings</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>He must have been a happy boy.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>He had lots of friends. Lots of attention.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Excuse me. I forgot to turn this thing off.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>That’s alright.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Let’s see. That was at the store.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>So, you helped with the store, doing like all the stock. And, like, when the customers would come in, you’d help them?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah. It’s Cecil and I. we did it all. It was a real enjoyable, and funny. Um, Horstmeyers?</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Horstmeyer [Farm and Garden].</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah, they have it now. Of course, we come in and get our feed there. And we came in and Miss Horstmeyer was behind the counter, and she made some comment about, “There’s the Tuckers.” And her telephone rang and she said, “Tuckers?” Instead of “Horstmeyer’s.” We had the biggest laughs over that. Her calling her own store by the wrong name. Oh, goodness.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>And you sold the store to your son first, right? And he just took it over, and did you retire, or did you move on to different things?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, we didn’t do any—I don’t know. You’d have to ask Cecil.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Um, I don’t—I haven’t been—I haven’t thought of that in a while. Oh, goodness. So…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Do you have grandchildren?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yep, we got great-grandchildren. We had Miriam, and then Cecil and John. Miriam is in—still in Christmas. She’s in Christmas. And Cecil III—he lives in a house that was ours in Sanford, and John is on the coast.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Daytona [Beach]?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>No, closer by.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Melbourne?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>That’s south. What is it, right down Cheney Highway? Um, Titusville.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Titusville?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Titusville. When, let’s see. I was trying to think, I guess Drew, his son, one of his sons, moved up to Titusville and he wasn’t going to be left behind from being around his grandchildren. And so they moved up. And they live in that area. So it’s real nice. Drew has four children—two boys and two girls. So John and Pam just make do over there profusely. [<em>laughs</em>] Which is really nice. So, we’ve spent time over there ourselves.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>You like it over there on the coast?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah. It’s nice. Yeah. We were talking about John and Pam and the kids there.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>I had asked Mrs. Tucker what she did once the store closed. If y’all retired, or if you just kind of—what you did.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Well, we sold the store to my son. And when we moved out to Christmas, we just spent more time working on the ranch. So. And that went on, we were pretty much full time on that until Mother—well, my dad passed away in ’95, and in the next couple years Mother came to live with us. And Mart looked after her for the next 10 or 12 years.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Wow.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Mother lived to be 101, one month, one week, and one day old.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>She was the one. She was quite a lady.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>And how about your parents?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, my dad passed away. I don’t know when.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Well, he was in his late 80s. And then later, your mother came to live with us, and she was in her 90s when she passed away.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>She was living the little house, where she did when we were in Sanford. And my sister Betty was living with her when, after Daddy died. And keeping care of her. And it was getting to be a burden for her. So I just had her and Mother to come on over to our house and she would be looking after Mother, but she wouldn’t have that, you know, burden of having to do all the shots of making decisions that she had us to be able to do that too. And…</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Well, I was going to take you back a little bit, because Mr. Tucker told me your maiden name was Albritton. And I know that’s real prominent down in the South Florida area. I know that the families would run cattle and different things. Was your family involved in that kind of thing as well?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, yeah. And, of course, Daddy—he was—how long was he foreman of the ranch south of Christmas?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>15-20 years.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>The thing of it is, he was involved in the tick eradication, and then whenever that was over, then he got the job of being foreman of that ranch. And so…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>But his family, the Albrittons, were raised around Polk County/Hillsborough County area.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, I was thinking of another—I can’t think of it. Where the Albrittons came from, I mean most of them were…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Well, some came from that area.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Okay. What’s the name of the area you’re talking about? [<em>laughs</em>]</p>
<p><strong>Cecil </strong>Pine Level in Pine Crest. Plant City.</p>
<p><strong>Mart </strong>Oh, okay.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Arcadia. By the way, Arcadia was named after Arcadia Albritton.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>That’s really neat [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>] Oh, something came on my mind.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>But Mart’s family came from—there’s two lines of Albrittons. There’s fence-cutting Albrittons and hog-stealing Albrittons. She’s from the fence-cutting Albrittons. [<em>laughs</em>] That’s another story.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Yeah. Yeah. Because cattle people move their cattle up and down the state of Florida, according to the weather. Weren’t any fences anywhere. People fenced their yard in, and things. And then whenever the—what is it? The people that put the fence across?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Oh, the, uh…</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Phosphate…</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Phosphate mining.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>That came in. And so they didn’t want cattle going through, and they put a fence over, and so a group of men went and tore the fence down. And there was a big shootout there.</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>Well, the second or third time that they tore the fence down was when the shootout happened [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>I think we talked about that too.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Oh, did you? What else?</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Do you have anything else that we didn’t talk about that you want to talk about?</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Don’t know. No, I don’t guess so.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Okay.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Guess we’ve got everything.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>How about you, Mr. Tucker? You want to add anything?</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>No. I think we did pretty good[sic].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Alright, then. Thank you very much, Mrs. Tucker.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /></strong>Well, you’re welcome.</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /> </strong>And Mr. Tucker.</p>
<p><strong>Mart<br /> </strong>I hope it’ll be worth having [<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Cecil<br /></strong>[<em>laughs</em>].</p>
<p><strong>Youngers<br /></strong>Oh, it will. Yes, ma’am.</p>

Lake Mary Collection
Subject
Lake Mary (Fla.)
Description
Collection of digital images, documents, and other records depicting the history of Lake Mary, Florida. Series descriptions are based on special topics, the majority of which students focused their metadata entries around.
The major lake in Lake Mary is named after J. F. Sundell's wife, Mary Sundell. The Sundells settled on the northern shore of Lake Mary and organized a Presbyterian church in 1894. As a citrus-producing village, Lake Mary consisted of two settlements, located along the railroad between Sanford and Orlando: Bent's Station and Belle Fontaine.
In 1882, Frank Evans migrated to the present-day Lake Mary area as a young boy. After retiring from his career as a circus entertainer for the Bailey Circus (prior to merging with P. T. Barnum's circus), Evans became a chemist. With profits from his dyed goods and textiles company, Evans constructed various commercial buildings, residential homes, and Lake Mary Elementary School. In 1923, he founded the Lake Mary Chamber of Commerce and was elected to the Seminole County Commission in 1926. On August 7, 1973, Lake Mary incorporated as a city.

Description
Episode 47 of RICHES Podcast Documentaries: Integration and Sports at Bethune Cookman University. RICHES Podcast Documentaries are short form narrative documentaries that explore Central Florida history and are locally produced. These podcasts can involve the participation or cooperation of local area partners. <br /><br />Episode 47 features some of Bethune-Cookman University's greatest coaches and athletes, as well as integration and how it affected sports and recruitment. This contains some very raw statements which demonstrate how passionately people feel about this piece of history.<br /><br />The Daytona Educational and Industrial Training School was established by African-American educator and civil rights activist Mary McLeod Bethune in October 1904. In 1923, the school merged with the Cookman Institute of Jacksonville and then became affiliated with the Methodist Church the following year. The school served as a co-educational high school until 1931 when it became a junior college. In 1941, the school was accredited as a four-year college and was renamed Bethune-Cookman College.
Abstract

Description
The Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Shelton Sanford (1823-1891) purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the City of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From 1927 to 1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, with visits from some of golf's greatest athletes, such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen.
The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants acquired the Mayfair Inn property for Spring Training, which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.

Description
Workmen clearing Hole #4 green at the Sanford Country Club using teams of horses and shovels. Sanford Country Club and Golf Course was originally purchased as a portion of a 20,000-acre tract by General Joseph Finegan for $40. In 1870, Henry Sanford purchased the tract and sold some of it in 1878 to Charles Amory. In 1922, the city of Sanford bought 152-acres to design and construct a municipal 18-hole golf course. The course opened in October of 1922 with only four holes available for playing. The remainder of the golf course was opened in September of 1924. From the year 1927-1939, the golf course and country club experienced once of its most successful periods, seen some of golf's greatest athletes such as Gene Sarazen and Walter Hagen. The club, for a time, saw a state of disrepair and depression. For a short time, the club became the Seminole County Club after renovation in 1945. Then, in the late 1940s, the New York Giants received the Mayfair Inn for Spring training which allowed them to take control of the golf course. This led to the most prosperous period of the golf course and country club becoming a part of the PGA tour between 1955 to 1957, seeing players like Arnold Palmer tee-off on the course. Now called the Mayfair Country Club, the club and golf course is located at 3536 Country Club Road in Sanford, Florida.
