In 1814 Andrew Jackson camped his troops in what is now the Cantonment area.〔(1814, 1821), Cantonment. Encampment site used by General Andrew Jackson during the First Creek War, and also again before the Spanish cession of West Florida.()〕 This is also how the town received its name; as a cantonment is a temporary quarter for troops.
