Stories from the Shadows: The Lives of the Enslaved at Arcadia Mill in Milton, Florida
Presented by Katherine Sims, City of St. Augustine
The Arcadia Mill industrial complex of northwest Florida was once a thriving commercial enterprise that included over 100 enslaved individuals. After many years of archaeological investigations, much more is known about their poorly documented communities and daily lives.
Katherine Sims received her Master's Degree in Historical Archaeology from the University of West Florida and now works for the City of St. Augustine as the Research and Collections Archaeologist. Her research interests include Spanish colonial history, plantation archaeology, and applications in Geographic Information Systems.
