The Tindall Pioneer Homestead

Introduction

Text-to-speech Audio

The Tindall House is an historic, cracker-style house built in 1892, and is considered the oldest existing home in Palm Beach County, Florida. The house was built by George Tindall, a Georgia farmer who homesteaded on Palm Point (off Center street in Jupiter). The site has since been moved to be next to the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse.

-The Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Museum website includes history of all the buildings recovered during its construction, including the Tindall Pioneer Homestead. The Jupiter Inlet Website is a county-run website and is reliable since it's run by a group of authority figures instead of individuals.

-This website provides an individual’s experience visiting the Tindall Pioneer House, and the information she learned from the tour she went on. Although her blog isn’t as accurate since it’s run by an individual instead of a group of authority figures, she gives a detailed description of the facts she learned while visiting, which I will double-check on my own by going there in person once it opens back up.
