One of the earliest settlers was William Gainer, who was with Andrew Jackson's forces when they passed through the area on their way to Pensacola in 1818 (during the First Seminole War).
He was West Florida's governor through much of the First Seminole War, until he was deposed by American general Andrew Jackson and replaced with William King.
