Not just 19th century

Use of the term dates back to the 18th century and continues to the present day. It isn't just about 19th century pioneers.70.126.47.211 (talk) 21:58, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs more references. You cannot simply write an article with four random citations and call it encyclopedic. --Jutland86 (talk) 00:07, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why Anna Hicks?

I don't understand the link in "See Also" to Anna Hicks, a Boston politician. Why/how is she a Florida Cracker? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.47.231.2 (talk) 00:56, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pejorative

I’m surprised that the Modern Usage section mentions only that “the term is used as a proud or jocular self-description” among “some Floridians.” If it’s only some, doesn’t that imply that there is another interpretation/usage? In fact, there’s another Wikipedia page for simply “cracker” which defines it primarily as “a racial epithet.” Neuroglider (talk) 15:22, 2 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
