FLORIDA HISTORICAL SOCIETIES
There are hundreds of local Florida historical societies ranging from small town operations to major metropolitan organizations.Many of the smaller organizations are staffed by volunteers who have an obvious love of Florida history, especially as it relates to their own communities. The Florida Historical Society is the oldest of these, and is located in Cocoa Village, Florida. It's collections and journal cover the history of the entire state. Even so, there are local societies that have larger collections and more members. The Cocoa Village office has an excellent resource library and a cadre of volunteers in addition to a very small and efficient professional staff. Their efforts help keep Florida history and heritage alive; without them we wouldn't know much about what went on before us. Florida Backroads Travel has listed a few of these societies. We look forward to learning about more of them from our visitors. - Alger-Sullivan Historical Society - Century, Florida
