Anona, Florida

Anona is an unincorporated area in Pinellas County, Florida, United States.

In 1883, Captain John Thomas Lowe made a landing here, with the town getting its name from Anona sweet apples from Key West.

At first it was going to be named Lowe's landing but its postmaster, from Cedar Key suggested it was to be Anona.

There was a railroad spur that had crossed over the island here that allowed for transportation of goods to and from here (bridge removed in 1928).

A year later in 1873, a church board was formed and a schoolhouse was most likely in operation there in the weekdays.
