Brief History of Oviedo

Andrew Aulin was a Floridian settler back in the 1870’s. He wished to add a post office nearby and decided to name it uniquely. So, he went Spanish in origin, just like the name “Florida.” Oviedo is named after a town in northern Spain. Oviedo then became the name of Aulin’s first post office location.
