Did you know?
Jacksonville's beginning dates back to an early 1800's settlement, called Cowford because cattle crossed the St. John's River here. The name was changed to Jacksonville in 1882 in honor of General Andrew Jackson, the provisional governor who had forced Spain to surrender Florida to the United States two years earlier.
