Florida. Constitutional Convention (1868)

On October 10, 1865, the Constitutional Convention met in Tallahassee to nullify the Ordinance of Secession of 1861 and adopt a new constitution for the State of Florida. The new constitution went into effect on November 7, 1865, without being submitted to the people for ratification. The Constitution of 1865 was never fully effective. Federal military forces remained in command of the state until July, 1868, when a new constitution was written.
