==History==
In 1864 during the American Civil War J.K Stickney and W.C. Morrill published the first edition of the Florida Union. It was a Northern and Republican paper which at the time was when Jacksonville was occupied by the Union Army. By 1867 Stickney sold the Florida Union to Edward M. Cheney of Boston. Cheney unsuccessfully tried to make the paper in a daily publication but was financial unable to do so. The Florida Union was sold again to Walton, Fowle & Co. in 1873. Stockholder C. F. Mawbey assumed control and was able to turn the Florida Union into a daily publication. Cheney returned to the Florida Union as a editor. In 1876 the Florida Union was in decline and abandoned daily publications. Financially doomed it was sold to H. B. McCallum who then returned it to daily publications as well as converting it from an afternoon to a morning paper. Charles H. Jones wanted to buy the Florida Union but was refused by McCallum. Jones became annoyed at McCallum so he decided to start a rival paper called the Florida Daily Times in November 1881. By 1883 the Florida Daily Times was dominating the Florida Union. McCallum became ill and finally decided to sell the paper to the Florida Daily Times. The acquisition of the Florida Union then combined with the Florida Daily Times to form the Florida Times-Union. The first publication under the name of Florida Times-Union was February 4, 1883.
