Discover Lake Panasoffkee

Lake Panasoffkee, in Sumter County, was home to Boggy Island, a self-governing Black Seminole village settled by people from Central Africa's Kongo region. Black Seminoles settled near Boggy Island around 1813 and named it Sitarkey's Village, after an Alachua Seminole who lived there, and the Seminole used the lake area for councils and Green Corn Dances.

More about Lake Panasoffkee

The villagers raised corn, rice and sugarcane, given to them in 1822 by Horatio Dexter, one of the area's first settlers, as well as cattle, horses and hogs, and they may have planted one of Florida's oldest orange groves. The village was largely untouched in the Second Seminole War and served as a refuge for Black Seminole families, though the Army searched it twice; troops under Colonels Bennet Riley and W. J. Worth found it empty on the morning of June 11, 1840. After the battle of Wahoo Swamp, Osceola, possibly ill with malaria, moved to the Panasoffkee Swamp.
