History

They continued to manage the city's utility needs until the 1940s, when they sold off its ice plants to the Atlantic Company, its electric service to Florida Power Corporation, and its water services to Florida Utilities. In 1859 the lodge erected a permanent meeting place at what is now the intersection of Main Street (US Highway 441) and Alabama Avenue. The settlers in the vicinity of "The Lodge" were largely isolated during the American Civil War, but the area rebounded once peace was re-established, and a population boom followed the construction of railroad lines through the region. At the conclusion of the Second Seminole War, the US Congress passed the Armed Occupation Act of 1842, forcing surviving natives at Ahapopka to abandon their village and seek refuge deeper in the wilderness of the Florida peninsula. The Acuera were succeeded by refugees from Alabama and Georgia, who formed the new Seminole Indian Tribe.
