Interior and some typical furnishings of the 1800s. You can tell by the furniture and rugs that the owners were better off than most of the Crackers who were barely making it during that period.

This preserved Cracker House serves as the home for the Winchester Symphony in Eau Gallie. It was built in 1886.

Clear view of the other structures that made up the Cracker homestead. Some of these were the outhouse, the kitchen, a smoke house, and a corncrib.

Smoke house with an overhang for farming tools.

Good view of the "dog trot"
