John P. Wall

John Perry Wall was a physician, and mayor of Tampa, Florida (1878-1880).〔(John P. Wall ) City of Tampa〕 In 1859 he was a surgeon at Chimborazo Hospital in Virginia, serving soldiers from Florida during Civil War. On a visit to Brooksville, Florida he married Pressie Eubanks, the nineteen-year-old daughter of a wealthy planter. In 1869 he moved to Tampa. In 1871, he contracted yellow fever aboard the steamer H. M. Cool from Cedar Key while treating a cabin boy. He carried the disease to his wife and two-year-old daughter who died within a few days. He devoted his medical career to studying yellow fever and communicable diseases. He also became more of an alcoholic. After agreeing to give up alcohol he was allowed to marry Matilda McKay, daughter of Captain James McKay.〔 Charlie Wall was their son.
Dr. Wall lived on the site of the Tampa Federal Savings and Loan Bank building. As mayor from 1878 to 1880, he worked to increase maritime trade. He founded the Tampa Board of Trade and the Tampa Chamber of Commerce, serving as its first president. He helped lead construction of the railroad from northeastern Florida to Tampa, the settlement of Vincente Martinez Ybor and a large colony of Cuban and Spanish cigar makers in what is now part of Ybor City, and helped establish the phosphate industry.〔() USF digital collections.
