First Civilian Governor of Florida Territory

Item Details

Description

William Pope Duval (1784-1854) was the first civilian governor of Florida Territory, succeeding Andrew Jackson who had been military governor. In his twelve-year governorship, from 1822 to 1834, he divided Florida into four territories, established the local court system, and chose Tallahassee as the territory’s capital because of its central location. Duval County, where Jacksonville is located, and Duval Street in Key West are named for him. He was born in Virginia he was inclined to be somewhat wild in his youth. While young (age 14) he decided to go to Kentucky and told his father, who remarked, “If I give you a Negro you will sell him the first chance and spend the money you get for him; if I give you a horse you will bet him off at the first horse race you see, and if I give you a pocket full of money you will bet it off or give it away. You love a gun and would not part with that.” With a light heart he left home telling his family he wouldn’t come back until he was a member of Congress. So he walked to Kentucky. He arrived at Bardstown, Ky. and studied law, fell in love and married the daughter of Col. Andrew Hynes. Col. Hynes was the founder of Elizabethtown, which was named after his wife. Having sown his wild oats he began to practice law in Elizabethtown. As there were no lawyers there, he was appointed County Attorney of Hardin County. In 1812 he ran for congress and was so popular that no one opposed him. He served in congress, 1813-14. On his first trip to Washington he visited his relatives in Virginia for the first time since leaving, thus verifying his promise not to return until he was a congressman. In 1822 he was appointed Gov. of Florida by President Monroe, and re-appointed by Presidents Adams and Jackson. Offered here is an ADS, 1812, legal document concerning debt and Bleakley and Montgomery. These two men opened the first general store in Elizabethtown, Ky., doing much business with Thomas Lincoln, father of the future president. Approx. 7-1/2 x 6-1/4 in. VG. Quite RARE!. Portrait of Duval is not included here.
