Today in History📜 The Battle of Santa Rosa Island, fought on October 9, 1861, was an early Civil War clash in Florida. Confederate General Richard H. Anderson led 1,200 troops across Pensacola Bay to surprise the Union garrison at Fort Pickens. Landing at night, they overran Union pickets, burned tents, and attacked Camp Brown. Union Colonel Harvey Brown rallied defenders with naval support, repulsing the Confederates after a two-hour fight. #civilwar #history #florida | Massie's Antiques and C
