Long before rockets, a lighthouse defined this stretch of coast. The Cape Canaveral Light was established in 1848, and families followed it to settle the area. Mills O. Burnham kept the light for about three decades, and his family became part of the community's early story. Small post offices once served the scattered settlement under the names Canaveral, Canaveral Harbor and Artesia.
By 1890 much of the land had a very different purpose: the Canaveral Harvard Club, a hunting club, held more than 18,000 acres. In the early 1920s a group of Orlando journalists developed a seaside community they called "Journalista," known today as Avon-by-the-Sea, one of the neighborhoods within the city. The modern city began with a citizens' committee formed in 1961 to incorporate the area. Paperwork delays meant its charter had to pass the Florida Legislature as a bill, and the city's incorporation is dated May 16, 1963, though at least one reference gives 1962. Ann Thurm, who served as mayor from 1977 to 1979, later wrote a history of Cape Canaveral and its surrounding area. The city's annual Sun and Space Festival dates to 1967, a reminder of how closely the town's identity grew alongside the space program next door.
