The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗Dudley W. Adams arrives at what is known as the "Olaville" settlement in Northwest Orange County, Florida.
During a neighborhood meeting at the home of Miss Bessie Heustis, sister-in-law of Mr. Adams, the name of Olaville is changed to Tangerine, the group being inspired by the fruit of the tree that grew by her doorstep.
The Congregational Church is founded as the Union Church of Christ in Tangerine. Shortly thereafter, the name is changed to the Congregational Church of Christ and a church building is constructed. In the 1940s, the church is named Tangerine Community Church.
The Tangerine Improvement Society (TIS) is founded by local Tangerine women. Men are later admitted in 1920.
