Carved from the longleaf pine forests of central Florida, the city of Groveland was built by generations of hardworking men and women. Originally named Taylorville, the town was incorporated in 1922 and was blessed with visionaries such as founder Daniel Sloan, father and son entrepreneurs E. E. and L. D. Edge, and the Arnold family, among others. Their dreams, mixed with those of mill workers, farmers, orange pickers, preachers, and teachers, created a town with boundless community pride. Groveland was home to the largest sawmill in the Southeast and the most successful football program of any high school its size in the state. It was also the birthplace of the Florida Telephone Company. Images of America: Groveland pays affectionate tribute to the people and events that inspired the history of Groveland and its neighboring communities.
