According to the Cedar Key Timeline on www.parkplaceincedarkey.com/Time Line.html , "All this changed on September 29, 1896 when the town was struck by a hurricane which included a ten-foot tidal wave. Both mills were destroyed and never rebuilt. A fire began which destroyed several buildings. Turpentine camps were devastated for a 30 mile swath. The sponge fleet suffered severe damage with 20 boats sinking with all hands on board. Without materials to ship by railroad, Cedar Key lost its status as a port town...." -- Found in a search. (?)
