COLBY was born on 6 JAN 1848 in Pike, Wyoming County, New York. He appeared in the census on 16 JUL 1860 in Forestville, Fillmore County, Minnesota. (living at home with father and mother.) He died in 1933 at Cassadaga, Volusia County, Florida. Cassadaga, a Seneca Indian word meaning "rocks beneath the water" was established as a Spiritualist community by George P. Colby in 1894. Born in New York in 1848, Colby was told during a seance that he would someday be instrumental in founding a Spiritualist community in the South. That prophecy was fulfilled in 1875 when Colby was led through the wilderness of central Florida by his spirit guide "Seneca" to the future site of Cassadaga. Colby and the followers who joined him at Cassadega belonged to the American Spiritualist Association, a movement that sought to foster communication with spirits and encouraged people to develop their psychic abilities. The movement was founded in the 1840s in Chautauqua County, New York, and eventually spread nationwide. In the South, groups of Spiritualists began searching for a site in Florida where they could establish a resort community where Spiritualists from across the country could congregate during the winter. Colby offered them the Florida property he had homesteaded and in January, 1895, he deeded over 35 acres to the newly incorporated Southern Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp Meeting Association. The word "camp" appeared in the organization's name because at the time it meant an annual gathering of religious groups. There are no actual camping facilities at Cassadaga today. The Spiritualists were only one of several religious groups to establish Florida communities in the late nineteenth century. Florida appealed to many people because of its relatively untouched landscape, and to religious practitioners as a tropical "Garden of Eden" where they could freely express themselves and develop communities dedicated to their needs. Settlements by the Shakers and the Koreshan Unity were established in the same year as Cassadaga but failed to survive, owing in part to the utopian goals of the organizations' members. Cassadaga is one of the few religious communities founded in Florida during the 1890s to remain in existence to the present day. ------------------------------------- Cassadaga's founder, George Colby, was born in nearby Pike Alleghany County. In 1858 young Colby was told by a medium that he would one day travel from the North to the South and establish a center for Spiritualists. Colby's family were Baptists. They were dismayed as young Colby pursued an interest in Spiritualism and became a practicing medium when he was19. The prediction was fulfilled 1875 when a TB suffering, 27 year old Colby traveled to Florida on the advise of spirit guides. "The foundation of Cassadaga's discovery was the profound healing of George Colby," says Hines Bengtson. "He had TB as a young man. He lived to be over 80 years old." Colby's records reveal that he traveled to Florida in part to be healed of his disease. They traveled by rail from Wisconsin to Jacksonville Florida. That is where the rails ended in those days. From there the group traveled by boat on the St. John's River to a Blue Springs Landing. Colby tromped through unpathed woods until he came upon the land which is now Cassadaga. There he began a regiment of drinking spring water and inhaling pine smoke to be cured of his TB. On June 21, 1880 Colby filed a homestead claim on 74.44 acres. Part of the claim was granted on March 28, 1884. It became home of the 57 acre Southern Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp Association. In 1894 Colby started the camp. It is the oldest continuously active religious community in the Southeastern U.S. In1994 Cassadaga was added to the National Register of Historic Places as a Historic District by the federal government. Colby lived in Cassadaga and New Smyrna Beach until his death on July 27, 1933 at the age of 85. Hoover explains that Colby's discovery of Cassadaga was the discovery of a place where the spirit plane and earth plane are unusually close. Hoover says is on a "portal" which is an ethereal energy vortex. "When people come here for the first time they say they sense a change in atmosphere," he says. "Cassadaga sits on a portal to different dimensions in yourself and the spirit." Parents: James Lysander COLBY and Elmira Abigail LEWIS. George P.
