St. Luke's Church is located at 5555 North Tropical Trail in Courtenay, an unincorporated community in Merritt Island, Florida. In the 1870s, the church founding families of LaRoche, Porcher, and Sams migrated from Charleston and John's Island of South Carolina and settled in Courtenay, Florida. The Carpenter Gothic-style church was erected in 1888, with funding from Lucy A. Boardman and land from Edward Porcher. The first resident Vicar of St. Luke's, Reverend Paul A. Perrine Jr., was appointed in 1962 and the congregation began to grow steadily. On November 15, 1974, the church was admitted as a Parish in the Diocese of Central Florida, with Father Perrine as the first rector. The church and cemetery were added to the National Register of Historic Places under the name "Old St. Luke's Episcopal Church and Cemetery" on June 15, 1990.]]> St. Luke's Episcopal Church Collection, Merritt Island Collection, Brevard County Collection, RICHES of Central Florida.]]> St. Luke's Episcopal Church and is provided here by RICHES of Central Florida for educational purposes only.]]> Museum of Geneva History, Geneva, Florida.]]> Museum of Geneva History, Geneva, Florida.]]> Geneva Historical & Genealogical Society Collection, Geneva Collection, Seminole County Collection, RICHES of Central Florida.]]> Geneva Historical & Genealogical Society and is provided here by RICHES of Central Florida for educational purposes only.]]> Chase Collection (MS 14), box 214, folder 8.18D, Special and Area Studies Collections, George A.

Chase & Company was established by Joshua Chase and his brother Sydney in 1884. The company sold insurance and later invested in storage facilities and fertilizer sales. Chase & Company was known mainly for its agricultural interests and maintained a series of citrus groves throughout Central Florida. The company was based out of Sanford and became one of the city's largest employers into the early twentieth century. By 1886, the Chase brothers purchased several citrus groves to expand their business, including Isleworth Grove. Isleworth Grove covered a total of 1,300 acres along the Butler Chain of Lakes. Between 1894 and 1895, Central Florida was hit by several freezes and most of the citrus crop was destroyed. Chase & Company did not grow citrus crops again until 1904 when Joshua came back from an extended stay in California. Between 1894 and 1900, different types of pesticide equipment was created, including equipment driven by steam, machines, and horses.Randall Chase joined in the family business soon after his brother, Sydney Chase, Jr., did in 1922. Randall became the president of Chase & Company from 1948-1965.

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.]]> Goldenrod Historical Society & Museum]]> Goldenrod Historical Society & Museum
