'''Daniel F. Sullivan''', a native of Ireland, moved to Pensacola with his [[Martin H. Sullivan|brother Martin]] after the [[Civil War]]. They were very successful in the lumber business, purchasing several mills and wharfs on [[Pensacola Bay]] and large areas of timber in other parts of Escambia County. The town of [[Century, Florida|Century]] was founded around the lumber industry the brothers brought to the area. Sullivan also built the [[Pensacola Opera House]]. The brothers began the [[First National Bank]] in [[1880]].
Sullivan died in [[1884]] and is buried in [[St. Michael's Cemetery]]; the monument to him there is the largest memorial in the cemetery.
