The Dixie Highway in Florida (1915-1929) - A Deeper 𝑫𝒓𝒊𝒗𝒆 into the Archive 08 

I had to pause several times to look at the post cards. I wish it still looked like this!

Thank you for uploading.

Tom you should look into the old 9 Mile Road. The first brick road laid from Jacksonville through St.Augustine out to Hastings then south to the tiny settlement of Espinola finally to Bunnell. I found the old brick road by accident one day and went down as far as I could until the sand covering what looked like brand new brick was too thick. I had to go to St. Augustine Historical Society to read old articles about it. Maybe you already know. Love your videos. They remind me of old Florida in the early 60's when my family would take us all over the state. Lived in Boca Raton from 1970. South Dixie Highway spent many hours driving up and down South Florida on it. Brings back pleasant memories.

I live near Tarpon springs off the "Old Dixie Highway"

I think this was an ancient road, several hundred years old at least. Are there any areas by the road with magnetic anomaloes on the South Dixie Highway around Florida City? I suspect it marks Ley Lines.

You seem to get more views with the 10 list approach. Maybe you should stick to it or maybe list off 5 things maybe your videos will get worked into the algorithm. Great facts about Florida keep up the good work! 👍👍👍

The States that got the most miles and routes of the Dixie Highway, were the states that employed the most "Chain Gangs" (Forced Prison Labor) ! Which in Florida, every County Sherriff had a "Road Prison Camp" ! Which housed their "Chain Gangs" Some of these camps were still open as late as the 1980's. Florida had the reputation for some of the most brutal prison camps in the country in the past. Even forced child labor. So much so that they still haven't found all the dozens of children's body's missing at The Florida Children's Correctional Facility at Marinna and Okeechobee ! A few years ago if you looked at the Google Earth closeups of that facility, you could still see the dozens of unearthed graves in the fields surrounding that correction unit. They have since been Bulldozed over. But, then again, I think most States in the South, have a past they don't want you to know about. Or a present either !

The secession of the Southern States was illegal? The Treaty of Paris signed in 1783 says that there are 13 sovereign Nations (principles) that hired the federal government to be their agent. Legally, principals can always fire their agents. I appreciate your content, and look forward to you holding yourself factually true in further endeavors.

Probably not allowed to call it that anymore
