Madison, Florida

“Madison is a city in and the county seat of Madison County, on the central northern border of Florida, United States.[ The population was 2,843 at the 2010 census. The territory now known as Madison County was ruled at various times by Great Britain, Spain, and finally the United States. This area was developed for cotton plantations dependent on the labor of enslaved African Americans. After the Civil War and emancipation, many freedmen and their descendants stayed in the region, working as sharecroppers or tenant farmers.”
