BRACKENRIDGE
Henry Marie Brackenridge played a huge role in Territorial Florida's importance in national defense through his land and live oaks, now part of the Naval Live Oaks and Gulf Island National Seashore near Gulf Breeze and Pensacola in Northwest Florida. Live Oak trees were used to build naval ships like the Constitution or Old Iron Sides. Brackenridge wasn't just the oak forest's first national forester, he was also Judge of West Florida and lawyer for Florida Territorial Governor Andrew Jackson. Here's a few pictures I took of Brackenridge's land. Brackenridge had a home here so lots of archaeological artifacts are probably yet to be found. Florida Territorial Governor and fellow lawyer with Brackenridge, Richard Keith Call, failed in his financial obligations for the land. Territorial West Florida Judge Brackenridge also had home and held court in Alaqua, Walton County (off 331 and near I-10).

Other pictures in National Park visitor center. May be of interest to Florida Historical Society Archaeological Institute
