Mary Esther carries two names in one. According to the city, it was named by its first postmaster, John Newton, for both of his daughters. The city dates its settlement to 1842.
A John Newton also brought schooling to the area. A state historical marker in Walton County records that the Reverend John Newton, a Presbyterian minister, founded Knox Hill Academy near present-day DeFuniak Springs in 1848. The boarding school drew students from across West Florida, southwest Georgia and southern Alabama, and it had a laboratory for chemistry and physics. In 1871 Newton closed the academy and moved to Mary Esther, where he opened a new school. Mary Esther was incorporated as a city in 1946. A small volunteer-run library, first proposed to the mayor in 1974 and housed in a 585-square-foot building, became the Mary Esther Public Library in 1976 and moved into its own new building in 1992.
