Not to be confused with San Pablo Creek in California
Pablo Creek is a tidal waterway in Florida.[1] It courses south of the St. Johns River to St. Augustine. There was a Spanish settlement named Pablo. Pablo Road was established and fortifications at the mouth of Pablo Creek were part of Spanish defenses. The Treaty of Paris brought British control of Florida and the British referred to the road as the "Road to the St. Johns" or "Road to the Cow Ford".
Plantations were established along it in East Florida and it was included in maps. Some British loyalists became refugees during the American Revolutionary War and moved to the area. Pine trees for turpentine, indigo, and food crops were planted in the area. The English departed in 1784.[2] The Spanish took over East Florida.
History
During the first Spanish period, Pablo Road connected St. Augustine, Florida with the St. Johns River near where Mayport, Florida is now. Spanish fortifications and defenses were erected in the area.[3]
When the Spanish regained East Florida the area was subject to land grants.
Pablo Creek Preserve is a 2,722 acre conservation area.[4]
Pablo Creek Reserve is a gated community and Pablo Creek Club a golf course.
