Archer

Archer is located in Alachua County, between Newberry and Williston (is part of the Gainesville, Florida metropolitan area).

Prior to 1850, a town called Deer Hammock was established where the town of Archer is today. In 1858 The Florida Town Improvement Company, owned by the Florida Railroad Company, platted a town here and named it Archer after General James T. Archer Florida's first Secretary of State (1845-49). The first trains stopped in Archer in 1859.
