Description
This river is the subject of the Stephen Foster song "Old Folks at Home," in which he calls it the Swanee River. He misspelled the name. When crossing the river by car today, the sign greeting visitors announces that they are crossing the Historic Suwannee River, complete with the first line of sheet music from the song. "Old Folks at Home" is the state song of Florida, designated as such in 1935. Foster never saw the river he made world famous.
