Wauchula was named by the Florida Southern Railway
when it extended south in 1886 and built a depot in the area, which
still exists today. The name was derived from the Miccosoukee Indian
word Wa-tu-la-ha-kee, meaning "call of the sand hill crane". Wauchula was incorporated as a city on September 29, 1902, chartered on May 22, 1907, and the historic City Hall was built in 1926. |
