David Waugh

I represent David Waugh. I was a resident of Pensacola during the British period. I was a military supply contractor to the Pensacola garrison, but I ended up becoming a baker to fulfill my own contracts. In 1766 I purchased half of town lot 89, on Bute Street between the fort and York Street (on Government Street between Alcaniz and Florida Blanca, today). I was elected to represent Pensacola in the House of Commons for the 2nd (1767), 3rd (1769), 4th (1769) and 5th (1771) provincial General Assemblies.
