Not the First Cemetery.
Contrary to general opinion, ST.
Michaels cemetery is not so old as
the founding of the city would indi,
cate. There are number of burial
places in the south and some in Flor
ida, that are older. When the city
was first founded On Santa Rosa
island, Of course people died and were
buried, but the place and any monu-
ments have long since been obliterat'
ed and forgotten.
After the city was reorganized and
established at the present site, there
was no real cemetery in the proper
sense Of the word. 1t is believed tina,
for many years the dead Of Pensacola
were buried along a strip of land
where West Garden street is now laid.
as in digging for excavations many
human skeletons have been found.
Some people believe that these bones
are those Of the aborigines who roam
ed these hunting grounds, but it is
more likely that the place was used
as q village burying ground.
From the best information that is
obtainable, 1t Is believed that the
ground that is now known as Saint
Michaeps cemetery was first used as
a. place to bury the dead about 1871.
That was the year that the Spanish
re.took the city from the English.
The plat of land known as Saint
congregation of Saint Michaels
church June 8, 1910. and was surveyed
shortly before this time.
The grant was made by the Spanish
Governor Vincente s. Pintado at the
time when Morales was the Inten-
dente.
Old Saint MichaePs.
Saint MichaeI's cemetery belongs to
old Saint kyichael's church. To prop
erly understand the history Of Saint
MichaePs, it. is necessary to remember
that in 1925, de NarraeZ discovered
Pensacola Bay. The Spaniards came
in 1896 and built a church at Bar
rancas. There is nothing to show just
what this church was or how long it
endured.
But in 1754, the town was establis a.
ed on it's present site and in 1865, the
English laid it off in streets as they
now exist and in 1881, the city was
surrendered again into the hands OF
the Spaniards.

The founder Of nearly every OH

I The religious Spaniards would not
long content themselves without a
church and they erected Saint
Michaers church on a spot just where
the present city hall of Pensacola now
stands This was done during the
same year of the Spanish occupancy.
This was long used by the parish and
served its purpose until the present
structure was erected
| The early congregation of Saint
| MichaeTs, during the erection of the
first church, worshiped on the plaza of
Ferdinand VII. During this time this
church was under the jurisdiction of

| At one time the church was under

man, an Irishman, who left here in
| 1922 and went to Ireland, where he
died. His yestments are still here in

| In mentioning the fact that Cole

! to remember that during the Spanish
rule in Florida, four of the governors

| The Scotch also played prominent
parts IN Pensacola during the Spanish
occupancy. The greatest among these
was John Innearity. He was con-
nected with the factors, Leslie and
Forbes, which firm had houses here,
at Charleston and in Havana and
Liverpool.
When the Spanish would take Pen
sacola they would drive out the
English. When the English captured
the place, the Spaniards all returned
to Spain. But the Irish being good
Catholics were not persona non era ia
to the Spaniards, and they were per-
mitted to remain. They usually did
this and continued to grow rich and
prosperous and with all their Celtic
characteristics, of course held all the
best offices in sight
In this connection, it is proper to
mention that Alexander NcGilvrav,
