Description

Various mementos of the ceremony dedicating the SLAVIA Historical marker on November 17, 1990 were interred in a Time Capsule in April, 1993 and re-discovered in 2011. The community was honored by the Seminole County Historical Commission with the erection of this marker. Included in the mementos are: the dedication ceremony folder, photographic images of the bronze marker in its original location, and an article published in the Orlando Sentinel on the day following the ceremony. Paul Mikler (son of Joseph Mikler, a Founder of the community) was interviewed for the article. Paul and his wife, Virginia, authored unpublished histories about Slavia families and were active in seeking recognition for Slavia Colony via this honorific status for the community.; Images of article from Orlando Sentinel (Nov. 18, 1990); Ceremony folder for dedication of Slavia marker, colored photographs of marker in original location (1990) near the church office (former parsonage)
