In 1874, a man by the name of David Simpson settled in the area of modern-day Mount Dora with his family. Simpson built one of the first homesteads in Mount Dora. The first postmaster who worked in the town was Ross C. Tremain. Tremain also became one of the town’s major real estate developers. Though the post office has always been named Mount Dora, Tremain decided to call the unincorporated town Royellou, which was a derivative of his three children’s names, Roy, Ella, and Louis. Long before the town existed, surveyors named a lake in the area “Lake Dora” after Dora Ann Drawdy, so in 1883 it was decided to name the town after the lake. The word “lake” was dropped and replaced with “mount” in order to reflect the fact that Mount Dora sits on a plateau approximately 184 feet above sea level. Furthermore, there is Dora Drawdy Way which is an alleyway in Mount Dora’s historic area. Mount Dora became a favorite winter retreat for fisherman, boaters, and hunters, which led to the Alexander House opening in 1883. The Alexander House is a two-story hotel that still stands and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
