Don Pedro Horruytiner House, 214 Saint George St Saint Augustine, St Johns County, FL
If sections of the masonry construction date form the first Spanish Period in St. Augustine and the Horruytiner "attribution" is therefore correct, the house can be associated with a family prominent in the early presidio of St. Augustine. Luis Horruytiner was governor of Spanish Florida (1633-38), and an earlier Pedro Benedit Horruytiner was governor ad interim, 1652-54.
