Hoyt House (Fernandina Beach, Florida)

The Hoyt House is a historic house located in Fernandina Beach, Nassau County, Florida. It was built by John R. Mann in 1905 for local banker and merchant, Fred W. Hoyt, and is said to have been modeled after the Rockefeller Cottage on Jekyll Island, in Glynn County, Georgia. Hoyt and his family lived in it until his death in 1927. The Everett Mizell family lived there for the next half-century, followed by a local attorney, whose offices occupied the mansion until 1992.[1]
