History

He selected the name Longwood after a suburb of Boston, which he as a young engineer helped lay out. He also initiated construction of the Longwood Hotel, which was completed in 1886. Although the railroad from Sanford to Jacksonville was not completed until the mid-1880s, the railroad from Sanford to Orlando, completed in 1880, increased access to the area for those who arrived by steamship. Settlers began arriving at what would become Longwood during the lull between the end of the Seminole Wars in the 1850’s and the beginning of the Civil War. He became owner of a charter for a railroad to run from the community of Lake Monroe to south of Lake Apopka when its owners couldn't pay a debt.
