| During the Seminole War in 1835, Orlando Reeves was on his post which was located on what is now known as Lake Eola. Orlando noticed what appeared to be a log drifting in the lake. Once he realized it was an Indian sneaking up on the camp, he gave the alarm to alert his company. In gratitude, the volunteer soldiers who stayed to make the area their home named the town for their comrade. | |
