There might be connection to The Seminole Wars were a series of conflicts in Florida between the Seminole people and the United States military during the 19th century, primarily from 1817 to 1858. These wars were primarily driven by the US government's attempts to remove the Seminoles from their land and relocate them to Indian Territory (present-day Oklahoma.
First Seminole War (1817-1818):
This conflict arose from tensions between the Seminoles, escaped slaves, and white settlers, as well as border disputes with Spanish Florida
.
Second Seminole War (1835-1842):
This was the longest and bloodiest of the Seminole Wars. It was sparked by the US government's attempt to enforce the Treaty of Payne's Landing, which required the Seminoles to relocate. Key events included the Dade Massacre and the Battle of Lake Okeechobee.
Third Seminole War (1855-1858):
This conflict was triggered by US patrols entering Seminole territory. While it was shorter than the Second Seminole War, it further reduced the Seminole population in Florida.
This alleged treasure may be connected to Spanish Florida with border disputes connected Spanish Florida?
In 1800, a former British officer named William Augustus Bowles attempted to unify and lead 400 Creek Indians against the Spanish, eventually capturing San Marcos. A Spanish flotilla arrived some five weeks later and re-assumed control of the fort.
In 1818, General Andrew Jackson invaded the territory and took San Marcos after raids originating in Spanish Florida had a deep impact in Georgia. Two captured British citizens, Robert Christy Ambrister and Alexander George Arbuthnot, were tried and found guilty of inciting Indian raids and executed, causing a diplomatic nightmare between the United States and England.
In 1821, Florida became the property of the United States and the fort was occupied by U.S. troops. In 1824, the fort was abandoned by the U.S. and turned over to the Territory of Florida. By 1839, the fort was returned to the U.S. and a federal marine hospital was built there 18 years later, using stones from the Spanish fort
So perhaps this alleged Spanish treasure was loot from San Marcos known to have been involved. It seems the Brown family had Seminole heritage in the family. And ancestor was present when this looting occurred.
