History & Context

History St. Lucie County is located on the east coast of Florida, along the Atlantic Ocean. It is part of the Treasure Coast region and is named after Saint Lucy of Syracuse. The county was established in 1905 and has a rich history shaped by Native American settlements, Spanish exploration, British occupation, and American colonization. Before European contact, the area was inhabited by the Ais and Jeaga tribes. Spanish explorers, including Juan Ponce de León and Pedro Menéndez de Avilés, arrived in the 16th century and encountered the indigenous populations. However, Spanish settlement did not take hold in the region. In the 18th century, the area came under British control during the time of British Florida. The British established Fort Pierce, named after the War Minister, Benjamin Pierce. The fort served as a strategic outpost during the American Revolutionary War, providing support for loyalists. However, after the war, Spain regained control of Florida through the Treaty of Paris in 1783.
