Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The Parades-Dodge House was built in 1803, adjacent to the Rodriguez-Avero-Sanchez House (Watkins House), which had been constructed in 1762. The Rodriguez-Avero-Sanchez House was originally constructed during the First Spanish Period as a wooden house by Fernando Rodriguez, a sergeant at the nearby Castillo de San Marcos. The oldest extant part of the house, built in 1762, was a small addition built of Coquina stone by master builder Juan Perez. The house was passed to Antonia Avero upon Rodriguez’s death in 1762, and owned it until she fled to Cuba upon the start of the British period. After the end of the British period in 1783, Avero unsuccessfully petitioned to have the house returned to her, and it was sold to Juan Sanchez at public auction in 1791, along with the adjacent land that is now home to the Paredes-Dodge House. The house was restored in 1958. The site of the Parades-Dodge House was owned by Antonio Jose Rodriguez during the First Spanish Period, and had two small tabby houses, which were demolished during the subsequent British period. The lot was acquired by Jesse Fish, whom sold it to Joseph Dyason in 1768. The lot was given back to the Spanish crown at the start of the Second Spanish Period in 1783, and was sold to royal caulker Don Juan Sanchez in 1791. When Sanchez died in 1803, his wife, Maria, sold the lot to Juan Paredes, of Mallorcan descent, whom began construction on the Parades-Dodge House that year. The house was lived in by Parades until his death in 1813, and was shortly thereafter sold to Esteban Esteban Arnau, and remained in the Arnau family until they lost it in a foreclosure in 1895. The house was acquired by local Jeweler James Dodge in 1900, and, as the street had become predominately commercial, the house was converted into a jewelry and curiosity shop. The house was sold to the St. Augustine Historical Society in 1934, upon Dodge’s death. |
