"321 Lift Off" Podcast onsite at the Lawndale Museum (The Hiram Smith Williams Home) in Rockledge.

Event Description

Join us on Friday, April 1, 2022, at 10 a.m., at the Lawndale Museum (The Hiram Smith Williams Home) in Rockledge.

Lawndale is a historic home in Rockledge, Florida, built by Hiram Smith Williams, a carriage builder by trade. Williams came to Florida from Alabama to find new prospects during the economic turmoil of the Reconstruction period following the Civil War. He began working to promote and lead the community, became the first postmaster for Rockledge, served as County Treasurer, served as a State Senator in the mid-1880s, and established the Brevard Telephone Company later in life.

We will be on location at the museum speaking with the docents (guides), exploring the history of the historic home and the Williams family who created it.
