The city of Casselberry is named after
its founder, Hibbard Casselberry.
Casselberry, who had a mechanical
engineering degree from Yale, came to
Seminole County, where his mother
had a winter home, in the 1920's.
He wanted to participate in the growth
of the local fern industry and originally
purchased some acreage near Lake
Orienta. After selling that land, he
purchased hundreds of acres in the
area which was incorporated as a
town in 1940.
He envisioned the development of the
town and, after the end of World War
II, Casselberry began building homes
in the area for the returning military and
for others who came to Florida to
retire. Consistent with his vision, he
started the utility system to provide
water and sewage treatment and
donated land for a city hall. And, he
established the town's cemetery and
formed a volunteer fire department
which started out with a truck donated
by his mother.
The city was incorporated in 1965 and
today, it has a population of over
twenty four thousand.

New York merchant Moses Levy
owned hundreds of thousands of acres
of Florida land before Spain ceded
Florida to the United States. Levy's
holdings from Spanish land grants
included all of modern day Winter
Springs.
In the 1880's, the trading camp at
Tuscawilla Landing, on Lake Jesup in
present day Winter Springs, was one
of the last southern stops for St. Johns
River steamboat traffic. Tuscawilla
Landing was located to the east of the
namesake High School and City Hall,
and behind the namesake Town
Center, at the end of the continuation
of Tuscawilla Road past SR 434.
In 1959, Winter Springs was but a
village with fewer than 600 residents
when it was incorporated as North
Orlando. By 1972, the residents were
tired of the North Orlando name. That
year, the residents held a referendum
which resulted in the name change to
Winter Springs.
Winter Springs is the largest, by area,
of the seven incorporated cities of
Seminole County. And today, it has
more than thirty three thousand
residents.
