This book provides great detail on how Orange Blossom Garden (OBG) began - and by who. Then, OBG expands into Sumter County - into what we know today as - The Villages. Beginning in 1968, Albert J.

This book provides great detail on how Orange Blossom Garden (OBG) began - and by who. Then, OBG expands into Sumter County - into what we know today as - The Villages. Beginning in 1968, Albert J. Tarson bought the land for developing a mobile home park. However, it languished, causing him to sell out to the Schwartz family. Then it began to expand in Lake County until they ran out of room - crossed US-441 and into Sumter and parts of Marion County. Now this massive community continues to expand. This book was written to sift through misinformation and stories - with facts. These facts are legal documents - deed records, county approved plats, FCC licenses, newspapers, and on it goes. This book covers the owners/investors - with some genealogy and history - as well as some early Florida activity (1950s - before the OBG). This book ends in 2014. The intent was how it began as well as how it expanded - more than about - today. There is a small section comparing a few modern activities - but the history ends in 2014 upon the death of Harold Gary Morse.
