It was formerly an independent city in Brevard County from 1860 until 1969, when the citizens of Eau Gallie and Melbourne voted to merge. A subsequent vote among the citizens resulted in the new city's being named Melbourne. The name and identity of Eau Gallie persists in a number of local entities. == History == A post office called Eau Gallie was established in 1871, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1970.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Brevard County )〕 The Kentucky Military Institute wintered in Eau Gallie from 1907 to 1921. ''Eau Gallie'' is commonly said to mean "rocky water", since coquina rocks were found in the area. While ' means "water" in French, ''gallie'' is not a French word and may be derived from ' ("pebble" in French).
