The Oviedo Voice on September 16, 2004. According to the article, Seminole County Community Development offered disaster relief for low-income households following Hurricane Frances, which hit Central Florida in early September of 2004. Qualifying residents could get supplies from Harvest Time International, located at 131 Maritime Drive in Sanford, Florida. Frances caused damages exceeding that of Hurricane Charley, another hurricane that hit Florida the previous month.

The following names are engraved on the pillar: George W. Calhoun and M. W. Lowell, Jr. from the Navy; Frank A. Campbell, Handy Jenkins, Joseph S. Laing, Archie B. Liles, Arthur D. Lossing, Carl Marm, Harry Phillips, Edwin J. Robinson, and James Oscar White from the Army. There are also engravings on all four sides of the base.

On February 23, 1919, the monument was dedicated in present-day Centennial Park, formerly named Central Park. The memorial was presented by Frank L. Miller and received by Judge E. F. Housholder. It is known as the first monument to soldiers of World War I. A feature that is unique for the time period in which it was erected is the inclusion of the names of two African-American men. This inclusion assured the resulting crowd of over 1,500 people in attendance for the ceremony was made up of people from all races. The memorial has since been moved to various locations including: American Legion Post 53, known locally as the "Legion Hut" until its destruction, at 3506 Orlando Drive on February 24, 1985; the new American Legion Post 53 at 2874 South Sanford Avenue in June 1988; and Veterans Memorial Park on November 11, 2006. The monument was rededicated to the people of Seminole County on May 28, 2007.]]> Central Florida Monuments Collection, RICHES of Central Florida.]]> Hidden in Plain Sight: A Selection of Central Florida Monuments."

In 1917, Alice Osceola, the wife of William McKinley Osceola, became the first known woman to wear patchwork adornment on her clothing. As more women took up the practice, the clothing became more elaborate and colorful. Indigenous women made patchwork articles to sell to tourists visiting their camps and settlements. Patchwork clothing and goods became a hallmark of the tribes' handicrafts and sales of these items helped support many Seminole and Miccosukee families before the arrival of the gaming industry. Seminole seamstresses made these dolls out of red palmetto fibers and dressed them in patchwork-style clothing like that of the tribe's women. The dolls are highly prized today by collectors of Seminole Indian artifacts. These specific dolls date to the 1940s and were donated to the Museum of Seminole County History by Clarabel Van Tuyl.]]> Museum of Seminole County History, Sanford, Florida.]]> Museum of Seminole County History, Sanford, Florida.]]> Seminole County Collection, RICHES of Central Florida.]]> Museum of Seminole County History by Clarabel Van Tuyl.]]> Museum of Seminole County History and is provided here by RICHES of Central Florida for educational purposes only.]]>

    In 2017, the University of Central Florida was one of three universities selected to launch the National Cemetery Administration’s Veterans Legacy Program Project. The program engaged a team of scholars to make the life stories of veterans buried in the Florida National Cemetery available to the public. The project engages UCF students in research and writing and fosters collaboration between students, faculty and local Central Florida schools to produce interactive curriculum for k-12 students. The corresponding website exhibit uses RICHES Mosaic Interface to create a digital archive of related data. The public can use the project-developed augmented-reality app at more than 100 gravesites at the Florida National Cemetery, where they can access the UCF student-authored biographies of veterans.]]>     Veterans Legacy Program Collection]]>

    In 2017, the University of Central Florida was one of three universities selected to launch the National Cemetery Administration’s Veterans Legacy Program Project. The program engaged a team of scholars to make the life stories of veterans buried in the Florida National Cemetery available to the public. The project engages UCF students in research and writing and fosters collaboration between students, faculty and local Central Florida schools to produce interactive curriculum for K-12 students. The corresponding website exhibit uses RICHES Mosaic Interface to create a digital archive of related data. The public can use the project-developed augmented-reality app at more than 100 gravesites at the Florida National Cemetery, where they can access the UCF student-authored biographies of veterans.]]>     National Archives and Records Administration.]]> Veterans Legacy Program Collection ]]> ]]>

    Along with a group of investors, Newton Perry opened Weeki Wachee Springs to the public in October of 1947. At the time, roadside attractions were becoming popular stops along Florida roadways. The attraction consisted of an amalgamation of vendors, an orchid garden, a river boat tour, as well as the star attraction: a mermaid show that took place in an underwater theater. Eventually, the May Museum of the Tropics, an "abandoned Seminole village", a show called “Birds of Prey”, and a petting zoo were added. After peaking in the 1950s and 1960s, attendance began to decline as theme parks and highways changed the dynamics of Florida's tourism. The State of Florida took over the attraction as a state park in 2008. Since then, the park has focused on appealing to a modern audience while preserving its history.

    After homesteading in the Dakota Territory, Gore decided to moved to Orlando, Florida, in 1880, due to his poor health. In the 1880s, he purchased The Orange County Reporter shortly after his arrival and was elected to the Orlando City Council. Gore served as Mayor of Orlando from 1893 to 1896.

    Gore's second wife, Caroline Groninger Gore, opened their home, which was then located at 211 Lucerne Circle, to a congregation of Unitarian Universalists led by Reverend Eleanor Gordon during the winter of 1910. On January 8, 1911, the home served as the site of the first service of the First Unitarian Church of Orlando. The church was formally organized the following year in the home of Edward McNeill, located at 309 Robinson Street. The congregation held some of its earliest services in the Lucerne Theatre before purchasing land at the northeast corner of Central Boulevard and Rosalind Avenue in on January 1, 1913. The church building was designed by Ida Annah Ryan and Isabel Roberts in the Spanish Colonial Revival-style. The Unity Chapel held its first service on February 16, 1913, and was formally dedicated on March 16. By 1954, the congregation had outgrown Unity Chapel and moved to a new church located at 1901 East Robinson Street. In 1957, the chapel's last service took place. Sam Murrell constructed a new building, called the Murrell Building, that was designed by Richard Boone Rogers in 1957.]]>     RICHES of Central Florida]]> Thomas Cook Collection, RICHES of Central Florida.]]> RICHES of Central Florida.]]> RICHES of Central Florida for educational purposes only.]]>

This postcard was part of a series of postcards depicting scenes in Tarpon Springs, Florida. Sponge harvesting in Tarpon Springs began in 1852 when Walter Lowe sailed to Anclote Key to secure cargo containing sponges. The Anclote and Rock Island Sponge Company was formed by John Cheyney in 1891, with offices in Tarpon Springs and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Cheyney also founded the Tarpon Springs Sponge Exchange, along with Ernest R. Meres, in 1907. Despite the Florida land bust of the 1920s and the Great Depression, the sponge industry continued to thrive until 1938, when a blight infested the sponge beds. Instead, the city turned to tourism, capitalizing on its rich Greek culture.

The corresponding website exhibit uses RICHES Mosaic Interface to create a digital archive of related data. The public can use the project-developed augmented-reality app at more than 100 gravesites at the Florida National Cemetery, where they can access the UCF student-authored biographies of veterans.]]>     United States Census Bureau]]> United States Census Bureau]]> Veterans Legacy Program Collection ]]> ]]> United States Census Bureau.]]>

    During the Civil War, Lewis Powell fought with the Conferderacy's Second Florida Infantry, Company I and was wounded and captured at the Battle of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania. He was sent to a Union hospital in Pennsylvania and later in Baltimore, Maryland. However, Powell escaped the hospital and joined the Confederacy's 43rd Battalion Virginia Calvary.

    In 1864, he joined the Confederate Secret Service and then returned to Baltimore on January 13, 1865. On April 13, 1865, Powell met with John Wilkes Booth, George Atzerodt, and David Herold to conspire to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln and his associates. Powell was designated to assassinate Secretary of State William H. Seward, while Atzerody was designated to assassinate Vice President Andrew Johnson and Booth planned to assassinate Lincoln. Powell went to Seward's house to "deliver a letter," but there was a skirmish and, in the end, he stabbed and injured Seward, but failed to kill him.

    Captured and tried, he was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder and treason, and hanged with the other conspirators on July 7, 1865. His body was buried in the prison courtyard and moved several times. At some point, a caretaker removed the skull, which ended up in the Ford Theater Museum. It was later taken to the Smithsonian's Department of Anthropology. In the 1990s, when Native American tribes requested that the Smithsonian return the bones of Native Americans for a proper burial, a skull was found with a tag identifying it as belonging to Lewis Thornton Powell. In 1994, the skull was brought to Geneva, where his surviving nearest relative lived. A service was held and the skull was buried in the Geneva Cemetery near the grave of his mother, Patience Caroline Powell. His body was buried in a pauper's grave outside of Washinton, D.C.]]>     The Smithsonian]]> The Smithsonian: Powell File: Museum of Geneva History, Geneva, Florida.]]> Museum of Geneva History, Geneva, Florida.]]> Geneva Historical & Genealogical Society and is provided here by RICHES of Central Florida for educational purposes only.]]>
    Sky Lake is a residential community and unincorporated area in Orange County, Florida. It is located approximately seven miles south of Downtown Orlando between Lancaster Road and Sand Lake Road.
