James W. Rossetter, was a native of Hamilton County, Florida, and came south to be involved with the prosperous fishing industry in the Cape Canaveral area. Rossetter moved the pre-Civil War house above to it’s present location in Eau Gallie around 1904. He expanded it a number of times.

The home is open for touring and is run by the Florida Historical Society. Their office is across from the Rossetter House in a building once occupied by William Roesch. Roesch served as Eau Gallie Mayor and postmaster for many years in the early 1900s. That building is below.

Also below is a photo of Rossetter Park and the entry sign to the structures on Highland Avenue in Eau Gallie.
