The First People of the Forgotten Coast

Location: Franklin County Senior Center in Carrabelle located at 201 NW Avenue F
Description: Speakers include Jim Miller - former head of the Florida Department of Archaeology, Julie Byrd – Anthropologist with the State of Florida, Ken Horne, expert on primitive methods of creating useful tools and weapons and other noteworthy authorities on this subject.
As part of our exploration of early inhabitants of the Forgotten Coast, the museum staff is asking for long term residents in Franklin, Liberty, Wakulla and Gulf Counties with direct lineage to local Native Americans (Seminole, Miccosukee, Creek, Muskogee, Apalachee) to please attend the gathering and bring any photographs of local Native American relatives, crafts, drawings or writings made by them. We request that you allow us to photograph your photos and special items on that day, as well as record or document any stories you might want to share. After our speakers’ presentations we will give each person with family stories or documents a 5 minute share session (or as time permits.)
This free program will be held from 10 am to 2 pm on Saturday
