Escambia County, Florida, has a rich history that dates back to the early 16th century, beginning with Spanish explorers like Tristan de Luna, who attempted to establish a colony in the area in 1559. The county is named after the Escambia River, which in turn likely derived its name from a Native American word meaning "clear water" or "river of canoes."
Key Historical Points:
• Early Settlements: Spanish, French, and British colonial forces all occupied parts of the region during its early history. Pensacola, the county seat, was a key area for these powers. The Spanish established a fort in Pensacola in 1698.
• American Control: After switching hands between European powers, Florida was ceded to the United States in 1821, and Escambia County was created as one of Florida’s two original counties (the other being St. Johns County).
• Civil War Era: Escambia County saw action during the American Civil War, particularly with the Battle of Pensacola in 1861. Union forces occupied the nearby Fort Pickens on Santa Rosa Island.
• Modern Era: Over time, Pensacola became a hub for naval activity. The county houses Naval Air Station Pensacola, established in 1914, which became the first naval aviation training facility and is the home of the Blue Angels.
