History

Timeline

Dudley W. Adams arrives at what is known as the “Olaville” settlement in Northwest Orange County, Florida.

During a neighborhood meeting at the home of Miss Bessie Heustis, sister-in-law of Mr. Adams, the name of Olaville is changed to Tangerine, the group being inspired by the fruit of the tree that grew by her doorstep.

The Congregational Church is founded as the Union Church of Christ in Tangerine. Shortly thereafter, the name is changed to the Congregational Church of Christ and a church building is constructed. In the 1940s, the church is named Tangerine Community Church.

The Tangerine Improvement Society (TIS) is founded by local Tangerine women. Men are later admitted in 1920.

Mr. and Mrs. William H. and Addie G. Earl donate land to TIS for a community building – “Tangerine Community Hall.”

The Tangerine Community Hall opens its doors to community use.

Mrs. Sadie Trimble gifts Trimble Park, situated between Lakes Beauclaire and Carlton, to Orange County.

Land later to become Tangerine Park is conveyed to the Tangerine Improvement Society.

The Tangerine Community Hall catches fire. The nearby Zellwood, Florida fire department responds within seven minutes, but the building is destroyed.

A new TIS building at 7101 Wright Ave. is dedicated as Johnston Hall in honor of Cecil “CeCe” Johnston for his dedication and service to Tangerine. When the original TIS building burned in 1972, Mr. Johnston led the drive for funds to erect the new building.
