Osceola County, located in the central region of Florida, was created on May 12, 1887, out of portions of Orange and Brevard Counties. The county was named after the influential Seminole leader, Osceola, who played a vital role in the Second Seminole War (1835-1842) against the United States.
The area's history spans back to the 16th century when Spanish explorers first encountered the native tribes, such as the Timucua, Calusa, and later, the Seminole Indians.The first American settlers began arriving in the 1840s following the Armed Occupation Act, which provided land grants to settlers willing to defend the territory. By the late 1800s, the region experienced growth as it was connected to the rest of the state via railroad networks - this included the South Florida Railroad and the Sugar Belt Railway lines.
A pivotal moment in Osceola County's history occurred in the early 20th century with the arrival of Hamilton Disston, a wealthy land investor who purchased a large portion of the land in 1881. His investment led to the establishment of the city of Kissimmee as the center of commerce for the area.
