And, while we were on Florida's Forgotten Coast as the locals refer to the stretch of Gulf Coast either side of Apalachicola, I did come across mention of a War of 1812 fort called Fort Gasden to the north of Apalachicola.
I heard several conflicting stories about it from locals so will do some research on it when I get back home. Wiki'd it and it does have a war connection.
