Best Answer

1823 Charged by the Territorial Legislature to find a site for the construction of a capital city, Dr. W. H. Simmons left St. Augustine heading west. He was to make contact with John Lee Williams, who left Pensacola at about the same time. The men were to meet approximately halfway between the two cities and select the site. The site chosen was a small Indian village called Tallahassee.
