Fort White, in Columbia County near Ichetucknee Springs, began as a military fort built in 1836, during the Second Seminole War, to protect the Cow Creek settlement. Supplies came by steamboat up the Santa Fe River and were sent on to other forts. Because of sickness, river flooding and rumors of a coming railroad, the settlement later moved four miles east to its present site; the original fort site became the Fort White Wildlife and Environmental Area in 1997.
The Seminole war leader Halpatter Tustenuggee, "Alligator Warrior" or Chief Alligator, of Alligator Town, now Lake City, is buried at the Tustenuggee Methodist Cemetery near Fort White. The Town of Fort White was incorporated in 1884 and grew after the railroad arrived in 1888. Phosphate mining, turpentine, cotton and oranges supported a population of nearly 2,000, but severe freezes in 1896 and 1897 destroyed the citrus groves, and by 1910 the largest phosphate deposits were exhausted and mining ended.
