My name is Hannah White, and I am a history major at the University of Florida who grew up near Alachua County. My passion for history has led me to an interest in museum work, and I was delighted with the opportunity to serve as an intern for this museum. When I saw that the museum largely focused on the city of Gainesville, I knew that I wanted to highlight the historical locations in the smaller, sometimes under-appreciated towns of this county. I hope that my project reveals the long-standing and rich history of this region!
