Shiloh Cracker House
The area around Micanopy, Florida is one of the oldest settled parts of inland Florida. Their are some relics remaining that give you a good idea of how people lived in the late 1800s. Some of the structures are amazingly preserved considering their age. This cracker house is in an area that used to be known as Shiloh.

Cracker House
This old cracker house is located in rural southwestern Marion County. The occupants have done a great job of adding some color to this old place. I really like the rocking chairs on the front porch, you can tell by the number of seats available that this porch is well used. If I had the energy to move I think I'd be looking for one of these on about 20 acres of old Florida farmland.

Cracker Homestead
Old places such as this are getting harder and harder to find. This one is on Highway 441 just south of Gainesville. It's a long way from the road so I had to resort to the long lens in lieu of being able to get close to it. If anyone who happens to view this post is aware of old homesteads like this I would greatly appreciate the information.
