González-Jones House

[4] Their sons Juan and Bartolome Leonardy had children who lived in at least three properties on the east side of Marine Street prior to the Civil War.

One of these families was Laureanna Leonardy (Bartolome's daughter) and her husband, a Norwegian immigrant named William Monson (Anton Bengt Osmundsen).

The family hired Mathias Leonardy (a cousin) and Cristobal Bravo (the future war-era mayor of Saint Augustine) to complete the work.

[8] Her husband was Captain Adolphus Newton Pacetty, who served with the Confederate Navy at the Battle of Mobile Bay,[9] and later was elected sheriff of Saint Johns County.

[10] He was proprietor of Capo's Bath House, the iconic round structure that appears in most photographs of the Saint Augustine waterfront between 1885-1914.

With the birth of grandchildren between 1896–1906, 56 Marine Street sheltered as many as eleven total people including seven adults—despite being built with only three bedrooms.

[13] The Jones' had four daughters: Charlotte, Mabel, Harriette, and Mildred,[14] who worked mostly for the Florida East Coast Railway.

Mary Evans Hudson was Saint Augustine's best known midwife and had her life fictionalized by Eugenia Price in the novel Maria, published in 1977.

In his memoir about visiting his aunts in Florida, Sonny Kirkman of High Point, North Carolina, described the Jones House as it looked in the 1930s.

Harry Jones added an indoor bathroom on stilts off the south side of the house, which was accessible from a door at the top of the stairs.

According to the Saint Augustine City Directories, the descendants of Roque Leonardy and Agueda Coll occupied four different houses in a single block of Marine Street for a period of more than two centuries.

The other five siblings of Juan and Bartolome Leonardy did not settle in Saint Augustine, but were instead among the earliest pioneers of Tampa, Florida, where they ventured with the assistance of Adolphus Pacetty in 1855.
