Acosta Family Genealogy Forum
  
The name is really of Minorcan background. The Acosta's were of the first settlers in Florida, namely Flagler and Nassau counties. They were here as forced colonials whom later "escaped" into the Florida woods to live with the Seminoles, or started new lives( as much as was possible when taking into consideration lack of food, and the ill health due to their undernourished bodies). If you check out the Flagler County,FL, and the Nassau County, FL (U.S. Genweb) sites, you will find out much of the Acosta's heritage , and role in the history of FL(of course, this is providing you are of this particular line of Acosta).
