The city of Jacksonville
was established as a Spanish territory in 1791, after the British gave
control of the area to Spain following the American Revolution.
Originally founded as Cowford, the city stayed within Spanish control
for 30 years, until conflicts between Spain and the United States
resulted in the Adams Onis Treaty, giving the land to the US. In 1822
the city's name was changed to Jacksonville, after Andrew Jackson, who
served as the military governor of the territory following its
occupation. The city grew quickly, and became the largest city in the
state.
