Attached (Plat-transcript-key.pdf) is a key to transcript recording book and page for older plats that were once part of Palm Beach County and Dade County but are now part of Broward. You have to use the transcript numbers to get them online as they are not listed using their original recording info. (example: Florida Fruit Lands Company Subdivision No.2 PB 1, PG 102 PBCR would be listed under “Palm Beach Plats” PB 1, PG 1 ; PB 1, PG 2; PB 1, PG 3 ; PB 1, PG 4).

Anderson v Benedict Court Case

Guide to Federal Records - http://www.archives.gov/research/guide-fed-records/groups/049.html

From the Collier County Museum (http://www.colliermuseums.com/history/index.php): One of the oldest place names on the Gulf coast, it first appeared on a 1771 chart of Florida as Caxymbas Espanolas. Derived from the Arawak Indian word casimba or cacimba, meaning a hole dug along the shore to find drinking water.

Other interesting facts about Caxambas:
It is the highest point in Southwest Florida at 52 feet
Here are the ruins of the Pineapple Plantation house built in 1877
