To the historians/ channel personnel....I'm thrilled w this item specific to both Fla & beads . I was born in area of Jax / Duval and Clay County, early 1960s and both my parents were born / raised in Miami from 1930 . I do beadwork as a hobby myself and have always been fascinated w the varying history of handmade or handwrought types of beads, worldwide.... Africa/ Czech., etc One teensy question or possible adjustment .... My family home near Jacksonville, is actually on a street called Fatio Lane. Your presenter pronounced this word as "Fat"- i-o. From the early 1960s, when we bought this home as new construction, we were told the pronunciation of the term was/ is? "Face-shio" . Not earth shattering, either way, but since there is history in the area with that word [ possibly Spanish origins?] , I decided to suggest it might be worth a moment to identify whether any archives tell us which pronunciation was original ???!!!!
Fantastic information thankyou so much
