Storia
Troy is an abandoned town in Lafayette County, Florida, United States that served as its county seat. Just like Fort Fanning, Fort "McKoon" (Macomb), Branford, Luraville and Wilcox, it was built as a boat landing on the Suwannee River about nine miles upriver from Branford. It was also known at times as Macintosh. According to one account, it was built between 1860 and 1862, so close to the water that the courthouse had to be moved a quarter of a mile because of flooding. A second account says its log courthouse was built in 1857.
