History

In 1860, a Post Office opened in Oakland, and closed in 1867. During the Civil War, the Post Office at Oakland was the only one operating within the present-day boundaries of Orange County, as Orlando's was closed from 1861 to 1866. Oakland Post Office reopened in 1877. During a time of great growth in the region during the 1880s, Oakland emerged as the center of commerce in west Orange County. It appeared that the village would blossom into a city, with the town incorporating in 1887. However, a fire in the business district and a subsequent period of freezes in rapid succession throughout the 1890s, along with the growth of nearby Winter Garden, seemed to ensure that Oakland would remain as little more than a sleepy village. In 1940, Oakland surpassed nearby Maitland in Population, ranking at #6 in the county. In 1950, however, Oakland fell back to #7, with a population of 545, the majority of whom were black.[7]
