LOOKING BACK: Farmhouse in downtown Panama City was once surrounded by fruit tree groves

LOOKING BACK: Farmhouse in downtown Panama City was once surrounded by fruit tree groves By Robert Hurst | Bay County Historical Society | Special to The News Herald © CONTRIBUTED PHOTO The farmhouse at 413 E. 10th St. in Panama City is seen in a photo taken in October 2017. Note the outline where a brick chimney once was on the home’s right side. It may be hard to visualize a farm in Panama City’s downtown, but 100 years ago, there was little development north of Seventh Street. Though the farm has long since disappeared, there still remains the old farmhouse at the corner of Cone Avenue and 10th Street.

Thomas’ lands were sold on Dec. 10, 1901 to Henry W. Williams. His occupation in the 1900 and 1910 Census was listed as farmer with residence in St. Andrews. On Jan. 4, 1911, Williams sold his lands to W.F. Segler, who occupied this site until 1946. Segler and wife Leola Judson raised 13 children in the relatively large wood frame vernacular two-story farmhouse. They also raised and sold such crops as plums, grapes, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, watermelons, cane, rice and corn. Segler’s Market was in the Jitney Jungle Store on Harrison in 1926, and in 1928 in his own building on Harrison next to the Panama Theater. In 1945, it appears that farming may have been abandoned and the lands subdivided into residential lots.
