Title Abstract for Ruskin Electrical lines 1926-28

This title abstract, while for running of electrical lines in Ruskin, is significant for a couple of reasons. In the first document, RELEASE OF RESERVATIONS, The Ruskin Commongood Society grants permission to run electric lines provided that no "manufacturing, banking, or mercantile business shall be conducted on lands with out specific Commongood Permission. It also shows that Adaline Dickman was president of the Society in 1926. Of even more importance is the third document, ORDINANCE by the Town of Ruskin. Little is know of the incorporation of Ruskin in the late 1920s, but this document attests to the fact that at some point,Ruskin was incorporated as a town in Hillsborough County. See page entitled DEED BOOK 806 Page 278. where, at the bottom, the resolution was "passed by the City Council of the Town of Ruskin, Florida in regular sessions assembled and signed by J. B. Thornton President of the City Council of the Town of Ruskin, Attested by the City Clerk, Cora Jones, and by Edward P. Buckland, Mayor of the Town of Ruskin Florida.
