| has gloss | eng: Georgia Cracker refers to the original American pioneer settlers of the Province of Georgia (later, the State of Georgia), and their descendants. In the late 1800s and the early part of the 1900s, Georgia ranchers came to be know as Georgia Crackers by Floridians when they drove their cattle down into the grassy flatlands of Central Florida to graze in the winter, stopping at where the citrus groves began. Instead of firing into the air as many "cowboy films" showed to get the cattles attention they became very good at cracking a bullwhip over their heads. |
