Jonathan Dickinson will come back to life through reenactor George Blythe. Mr. Blythe will bring the fascinating story of Jonathan Dickinson’s trials and tribulations of 1696
to life. A partial list of Jonathan Dickinson’s story includes his shipwreck in South Florida; being captured by the Ais Indians; his journey up the Florida coast to St. Augustine, and his open
boat journey to Charlestown, South Carolina where he took a ship to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
During this time, Jonathan Dickinson kept a precise journal of his trip. This is one of the earliest and best accounts of the early history of Florida. This program will be a great story for
all ages.
