Niggertown Marsh was the original name of a Civil War era rural marsh community that is notable for being one of the first recorded settlements in Florida, run and maintained entirely by freed slaves, or Freedmen, after the end of the U.S. Civil War.

The settlement was founded by a man called “Nep”. The larger area of the settlement was named Niggertown Knoll, next to it being Niggertown Marsh. In the early 1990s, the original names were viewed as highly offensive
