He served as a quartermaster sergeant in K Troop, 11th Cavalry Regiment,[2] and later served as the commanding officer of the 11th Cavalry Regiment.[1] He is credited as being the founder of Navarre, Florida and its neighboring beach community of Navarre Beach.[2] He first surveyed the land in 1905.[3] While serving as a surveyor in the US Army, he then later came back to Navarre, platting and naming the community in 1925.[3] In 1930 and 1931, he served as an engineer in the construction of the original Pensacola Bay Bridge.[3] After later moving to Valparaiso, Florida, he served as an engineer at Eglin Air Force Base. [3]According to Santa Rosa County, he also donated and sold most of the land that is now Navarre Park. NavarreWyman first visited the area that Navarre would eventually be located on in 1905, while surveying the land during his service with the U.S. Army.[3] His parents would move there shortly after. In 1915, six months after the death of his parents, he returned to the area from a deployment to the Philippines. After serving in World War I, he retired with the rank of Colonel, and once again returned to the area. In 1925, he would plat and name the town, Navarre, most likely after the province in Spain with the same name.[2][3] During the Great Depression, he was forced to sell some of this land to Santa Rosa County.[4] This land eventually became Navarre Park.[4] See also
