EARLY HISTORY OF VOLUSL. COUNTY, FLORIDA.
By
KATHERINE c. EVERETT
carly history of Volusia County, as is that of all Florida, be- fore the white man came, is extremely frahmentary. Archaeologists, have not yet been fully able "to road records written in sand and stone and in great mounds left by a peaceful and, apparently, numorous people, now vanished.
From pottory, war weapons, articles of domestic use, skulls and bones found in the mounds, burial and otherwise, the scientists deduce that the ancient aborigines wore a tell, active people, with crude, if any, ijoas of agriculture, who lived mainly by hinting and fisning. From ashes and other contents of the mounds, lapses of time appear be- tween extinct and inextinct habitations, showing life here for a period of at least several centuries.
Fartlo Msand, in the south-east part of what is now Volusia County, highest point along the atlantic coast of Florida, so great it lod some early explorers to call it a small mountain, was the first land Mark sighted by Ponco do Leon when he discovered Florida in March, 1513.
Page 71
De Leon seems to have sailed into what is now Mosquito Inlet and sent a boaticad of man ashore to explore. Geographers of today equate his chronicler's description of the "Rio de la Cruze" with the conflux of the Halifax and Indian Rivers N. with Spruce Creek.
The Indians, usually described by early explorers as peaceful, greeted De Leon and his men with a shower of arrows and the Spaniards though unharmed, withdrew in disgust, and Sailed further up the coast to make their first real landing in friendlier territory near where St. augustine now stands.
The next white men to visit the section were members of Rene de Laudonniere's expedition, in lob4, who built Fort Caroline on the St. John's River. Df Erlach, French chronicler, called the land "matchless", yet soft and pleasant of beauty . giant forests grow on high elevations, shore low . Beach one of the finest in the world, hard and broad enough for a large army to march over . . and though the sun shine ever so brightly, moistened with the tides and cooled by the sea winds, it is seldom hot or uncomfortable."
Of the Indians, D'Erlacn described them as "medium in height, weil proportipned, vary supple." Not as dark as the tribes beyond the St. Jonn's River, nor as savage in mien and speech, with "fine, regular features, hign foreneaus, lustrous eyes, spirited facea, pleasing manners, not excelled by best gentlemen of France. Good to be in their company."
Spunism Menendez exploreu through the country in 1360 trying to find an outlet to the Gulf of Mexico, but failed. He left' lo men, the first white settlers thereabouts, to teach the Mayacy Indians Christian- ity. They were not very successful. Lacor, some Franciscan Friars
Page 72
converted many of the natives and built there a mission of Jan Sal- vador ue MayaCa. Ruins of two ot .er missions built by the Spaniarus, may still be seen, one noar New Smyrna, the other noir tho Tomoka River, but the one on the St. John's Bivor has disappeared without a trace, inless a wild orange grove. probably descended from plantings by the Franciscans, may be considered as sich.
For more than 100 years the Franciscans and the Mayacans flourish- ed. Then Gov. Moore, of South Carolina Colony, invaded Florida and turned Savage Crook allies loose on the peaceful Florida tribes, who were no match for them nor for amalgamation with them and other War- like trives infiltrating from Forgia. They took refuge under Span- ish protection during the years of skirmishing which followed. The last of theso peace-minded aborigines, it is said, weretaken to Juba when Spain ceded Florida to England around 1764.
Peace between England, France and Spain at this time gave England an unbroken iing of colonies on the entire seacoast for the northern half of North merica.
Florida flourished. Gooves of oranges were planted ; sugar cane, indigo, hemp and cotton wore planted. The Turnbull settlement of New Smyrna was started. Many lana grants were made in whathis now Volust County, mostly for large plantations. The King's Highway was built from a few miles south of New Smyrna to St. Augustine and beyond it to Jowford ( later Jacksonville) , and on to the Georgia line. The growth "in wealth and population not equalled again for a hundred years."
The Indians, who had not liked the Spaniards, made friends with
Page 73
the English to such an extent that when Florida was re-ceded to Spain 1783, their chiefs asked the British Governor to request his King to send a great Canoe to take them away along with the British settlers. Then tactfilly told that would be impossible, the Indians vowed that they would make constant War on "any Spaniard who stuck his nose out of St. Augustine", or any other city.
The English had done more to develop the country in twenty years than Spain had in two hundred. Traces of their occupancy can still be found today in place names and other Ways, though when they went so did prosperity. Volusia County again became a wilderness. Except for & trading post or two and a scattering of Indian villages no record is found of anyone living in the ssotion for many years.
The tremendous embarkation of British settlers back to England, the Bahamas, Bermuda, Nova Scotia, and even former Tories back to the new United States of America, left the trading firm of Panton, Leslie and Forbes, later Juan Forbes & Co., as the last of British-born prosper- ity. Gov. Zespedes, awaking finally, to the fact of the firms' great influence with the Indians, offered them special grants and inducements to remain. Further, he began offering land grants to Englishmen to re-settle along the Halifax and Hillsboro rivers.
Under this more liberal policy, settlers began coming into the territory. Followed by even more liberal policy by Zespedes' succes- sor, by 1818 cotton, sugar and indigo plantations were again flourish- ing. The treaty ceding Florida to the United States of america con- firmed all such grants made before January, 1818 by Spain, consequent ly:

title to much land in Volusia County, wost of the Halifax River, rests, today, upon theso oid spanish grants.
Andrew Jackson, first military Governor of the Territory of Florida, divided the Territory into two hage Jointios, Escambia, with County Seat at Ponsacolo: St. Jpha's, ith St. Augustine as its dointy Seat. Al1 papers of the rosont Volusia County wore kopt at St. augustine until 1842.
Indian affairs quickly beenne an acite problen. the warliko Crooks, Seminoles and other tribes that came down from Georgia the middle of the 18th century had , as before mont loned, practically destroyed or absorbed the peaceful aborigines, and kept the Spanish population, after the end of the English Occupation, pretty much confined to coastal towns. Plantations ere usually ran by overseers, .. hile the owners lived in St. Augustine. Communications were poor. The King's Road, disused,
was overgrown; bridges over streams wore wrecked by Indians. Mail, usual- ly brought in by boats carrying hinting or fishing parties, was infrequent.
After the United States took over, there was a strong denand by set - tiers, fir removal of tho indians to their former hunting grounds. The
troatios of Payne's I nding, 1832 and Fort Gibson, 1833, tribal chiefs agreed to exchange their Florida homes for others further Test promised them by the Government. But the young chiefs and their adherents refus- ed to comply with the agreements. Efforts of the mitod States to en-
force treaty conditions brought on th S .minole War, fasting from 1832 , and costing many lives and more money than the amount that Was to 1842
paid to Spain for Florida.

Noxt she was part of Orange Co. in 1834, wich a part of what lo non prevard Jo., Volusia Co. was organ- ized and named. In 1870, Brevard was subtracted Into x soparate County. as. no constituted, 1968, Volnasia Jounty "embraces that territory which lies barwson tho Atlantic Ocean on the east, and the St. John's River on the west, sometimes known as the St. John's River Peninsula, partly in the Juth and partly in the Both degree of Latitude. It is bonded on the north by Fingier Co. und on the south by driverd and Dominolo Joantius.
The nam for the new Joanty was taken from Volusia Landing on the
Page 76
St. Jonn's Rivor where, during the English Oocupation, a Swiss by name of Volusie or Veluche had established a thriving bisiness. Earlier a tribe of Hayach Indians had a village there, and shell mounds towering 50 feet above the river bank attest to their long occupanoy in former years.
Tho Legislativa ast , creating the County, mas passed by the House of the Florida legislatura, December 18, 1854; by che Jonate December 22na and signed by Gov. James E. Broome, Tecempor 29th, 1854.
Enterprise, a small town on Lake Monroe "an expansion of the St. John's River at that point", was named as the County Buat.
Not many settiers lived in the aroa at this time. Except at the towns of Enterprise and New Smyrna, the people were scattered around the County on the contral andtn-east and west sides. Juttl> raising, cut- ting timber and farming small patches were the main ocoupations. Though there was little population increase, it was good sam country and a good hotel at 'nterprise flourished in hunting and fishing seasons.
In lool at the oitbrouk of the Tar Between the States only about twenty-five finilies lived there regularly.
The war touchen the Jounty light ly. Numerois inlets along the sea- coast offered excellent moans for blockade rinning. In pursuing one
J.S. Navy ships bombarded Now Smyrna and burned homes there. A small land engagement took place naar Volisia Lancing. In- cattle raising in central and south Florida provided most of the beef that reach- od the Confederate commissary , and Volusia County did its share both

in providing the beef and in the "Cuw Cabairy", men and boys who were exempted from conscription because beeded so badly for raising the battle and driving thom overland at certain seasons to points in Georgia or elsewhere to turn them over to the Confederate AGmyernment. Now immigration after the far Between the Suntes bogan when Charles and snurew Bostrom smiled down from St. sigistine, ip Matanzas Bay as far as possible, then hauled their boat overland to the Halifax River.
ADoit the same time, Dr. Hawks una several Army officors started the Florida Land and Lumber dupany, and bought land near what is now Port Orange. They broight 500 families of freedman to settle there. The settlers disliked the sandy soil and most of them moved away. In 1865 Dr. Hacks bought "Spanish Grant" two miles south of New Smyrna and founded the village of Hawks Parko, now Edgewater.
In 1871 a colony jano down from Mansfield, Ohio and bought an old sugar plantation which had been desortea during the Seminole War, and hamou it Daytona, after Mathias Daya leader of the colony. Ithad slow growth at fir t, then began to spread rapidly. In 1875 x colony from Ne: Britain, Connecticut, bought land five miles north of Daytona and founded Now Britain, now Ormond.
New Smyrna began again to flourisn. Oak Hill, Port Orange, Hoily Hill arose. Land drained by large canals was planted, usually with orange groves or as track farms. Those along tho St. John's River, main stream of the west part of the County, developed most rapidly. Enterprise grew anile Dit removal of the County Seat to DeLand in 1887 and slowing down of river traffic upon advent of railroads abated its
Page 78
progress. Hign pine-riuge lana east of St. John's River is fertile and well adaptou to citrus growing. Seville, .mporia, Barberville, DeLanu, Do Leon Springs, Lako Helen, Orange City were founded and grew, surrounded by goou rural populations,
DoLand grew the quickest. In 1875 a log cabin, owned by Capt. Jonn Rien was the only home there. Twelve yours, later, there was a thriving town important enough to have the County Seat re-located there. Located a few miles from the St. John's River, in high, rolling pineland, in places sixty foot above sea level, it was an ideal site to develop and a delightful and healthful place in which to live.
Atthe ting, steamboat trips up the St. John's River and back to Jacksonville were popular with winter tourists. Taking such an ex yır- sion, Henry Lolanu, wealthy, retired manufacturer of Fairport, Now York, left the boat at a landing in central Florida and took a leisurely drive through the surrounding country, was delighted with it and went home and brought some twenty friends, so report says, to 300 and settle there if it impressed then as favorably as it had him.
They came, they saw, they were conquered, they sottlod, they named their settlomont, Deland.
Greatly interested in education, Mr. DoLand early started an Academy on foodland Boulevard, the town's main street. The first sessions were held in the newly built Baptist Church. Later, Deiand built a second strustare for the school, which was called Deland Hail in his honor. Considered exceptionally large when construction was unier way, the building was outgrown by the end of the first school year.
.
Page 79
At first Henry Dezand met all school deficits out of his own pock- ot, then, as expenses grow, friends, notably John B. Stetson , joined in contributing, both money, timo and labor.
More and more students poured in, from outside the city, from out- side the State. More departments wore aqued. five thousand acres were donated to it. A library was built with a thousand books bought as a
beginning for its shelves. The Collage grew and grow. In the spring of 1887 it was chartered by the Legislature as a University.
Because of the interest, attention and money givon it by John B. Stat- son, Who had now become the heaviest contributor to it, Nr. Deland insisted the name of the University be changed to become the John B. Stetson Uni- versity. Er. Stetson domurred, but was persuaded and as the Jomm B. Stetson University it has grown enormously in size, influence and prestige and continues to do so.
The city of bei nd and Volusia County have grown greatly too, but nanes of the original settlers still linger on many of the streets apt. John Rich and his family gave their names to many of them · and many of the original names are still worn proudly by their descendants in Volusia County today. Alexander, Allen, Bracy, Burch, Campbell, Cannon, Sodrington, fade, Dreka, Howry, Hull, Jordan, Leete, Putnam, Painter, Roseborough, Stewart, Stith, Swift, Tillis, Tuten, Voorhis, wilson , to name just a few.
Gov. James E. Broome, who signed the act creating Volusia Was the grandfather of Judge James D. Broomo, for many years an honored citizon of DeLana, whose daughter and her family still live there.

Long since the shouting and the tumilt aiea. The Captains and, in this case, the Cniors departed. The Seminoles who fled to the swamps to escape surrender, have, by treaty, obtained deed to the land where they chose to live.
Florida DAR members, descendants of men tho fought succossfully for freedom and the right of self-government, reach out helping hands to an equally and determinedly freedom-loving people, contributing in many ways to their projects, including scholarships for college stu- dents. Billy Cypress, holdor of such a scholarship, graduated, with a B. A. degree from Stetson Universiry, in June, 1965. Today, Lieut. pilly Cypress is in Viet Nam, h Iping the South Viet Namese struggle to keep their country free.
There are LAR members in Volusia county, too, who, feeling the tug of the land on them, look with sympatny on the young chiefs and their followers , willing to fight to the death for the right to live in their own land .specially at Coacoochee ("ildcat), who fought valiantly, lea wisely, and was clover enough when wounded and captured, to es- cape from a supposedly inbreakable prison, and find his way to Mexico, to live and die a free man, rather than where those ho considered ty- rants demanded that he dwell.
And, so looking, they feol a certain price that Coacoochee way a son of Volusia, born and bred thore, and also, that the County can take a justifieu pride in him as a native son.
