History

Florida was founded in 1856.[1] It likely took its name from the state of Florida.[2][3] A post office was established at Florida in 1864, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1903.[4]

Florida was later known as Florida Station. This was based upon the train station located there in the building that was previously a post office and gas station. This small train station closed in 1956 and it was converted into the Florida Station Inn restaurant. This restaurant remained a popular local establishment until it closed in 1978.
