Davie was founded by a group of settlers made up of former builders of the Panama Canal. The settlement was originally called "Zona" but after Randolph P. Davie, the property developer, bought about 27,000 acres (109 km2), the name was changed to Davie. Much of the land was simply the eastern part of the Everglades, and the early history of the city was somehow tied to the problem of draining wetlands. The official founding date of Davie is 1909.
