Jackson County, Florida
Picture Collection
by Dale Cox

This is a photograph of Waddells Mill Pond. It was taken at the head of the pond from the spot where the spring flows out of the cave.

This is a street scene from Downtown Marianna taken in 1886.

This is the airplane that appeared at the Jackson County Fair in 1916. This was not the first plane ever flown in the county, but was one of the first.

This is the Holland Store at Parramore. I'm not sure what year the picture was taken, but I would guess the 20s or 30s. The two boys are Hewetts.

This is the pirate and adventurer William Augustus Bowles. He is supposedly the source of the treasure of gold and silver that is, according to legend, hidden in the "Money Pond" near Neals Landing in Northeastern Jackson County. He was married to a daughter of the Seminole chief Thomas Perryman, who lived near Parramore landing.
