Abstract

Juno Beach is a small municipality located in Palm Beach County on the southeast coast of Florida. Although it was incorporated in 1953, the Town is part of the sweep of history of Florida before European contact and thereafter. Its location and population growth are representative of significant changes in Florida. These links to the past are set forth in a narrative that utilizes people and events connected with Juno Beach to point out the relation of broader events to the history of a small Florida community as sand hills developed along the seashore. Nineteenth century efforts to control nature led to twentieth century efforts to save it.
