About Florida, Missouri

Samuel Clemens, later known as Mark Twain, was born in Florida in 1835. His family moved to Hannibal when he was about five. He kept coming back for long summers at his uncle John Quarles' farm. Those summers shaped many scenes in his novels.

On July 22, 1862, about fifty Union cavalry under Major Henry Clay Caldwell surprised Colonel Joseph C. Porter's Confederate force at Florida. Porter had 300 to 400 men. The fight lasted about an hour. Caldwell lost six killed and twenty-two wounded, and his cavalry retreated to Paris.
