The gravemarker is a typical style of the "Woodmen of the World". Joseph Cullen Root founded the Woodman of the World life insurance and fraternal organization. It was reported that Root's idea for "Woodmen" came from a speech he heard about woodsmen clearing away forests to provide shelter for their families. Others speculated that Root visualized himself as the root that would grow into a shelter, protecting members from financial disaster.

Cracker homesteaders oriented their houses on a north-south axis which maximized solar impact on all three sunny sides. Such a tactic helped to keep the wall dry. Placement of the fireplace and chimney in the north gable end would keep that fourth sunless wall dry as well. In the photograph, the wood is stacked off the ground alongside of the chimney.

This childrens bedroom was often used as bedroom and living area for the husband or wife's parents. When these people no longer maintained a home, they were welcomed into the home of one of their son's or daughter's, where they lived out their lives, usually contributing to the family by helping to garden and farm, work with livestock, sew and mend, make repairs, sit with the sick or children, advise, teach, prepare home remedies and assist with other tasks.

Grandparents were companions to children and advisors to the rest of the family. Many grandparents were excellent storytellers passing on family history, local history, and popular stories which would entertain children and others for hours on end. Some played musical instruments and sang.

A farm family was a self-sufficent unit. Spinning and weaving was a necessary task.

There was a bedroom for male offspring. Boys had to give up their rooms temporarily when overnight guests were present. They slept in the dog trot or on the porch.

Boys helped with the farm, livestock, and repaired equipment, built fires in the fireplaces during the winter and in kitchen stoves throughout the year. They would hunt and kill game, bring it home and prepare it for cooking.

The room with the fireplace was the bedroom and living area for the head of the family and his wife. Fires were built in the fireplace in early morning during winter, usuallly by boys in the family.

The head of the family laid down the rules. Decisions were made concerning the role of other family members as to work, play, education, spare time, budgeting, and punishment. Due to the size of the family, this room might be shared with other family members.

All foods were prepared and consumed in the kitchen-dining area, except for summertime. Preliminary food preparation occurred in the dog trot during this time. The water bucket was kept full for kitchen use.

There were jars which contained: Preserved fruits and berries; pickled vegetables and meats; lard with bacon slices; vegetables (corn, beans, okra, etc.), nuts, coffee, tea, flour, salt, sugars, pork stored in barrels or brine and wine barrels.

There are unique storage rooms on the second floor. Homes of this period did not have closets in bedrooms. Special rooms were dedicated to linen, pantries and utility services because servants took care of those chores.

The wood trim, ceilings and floors have been restored throughout the house. The staircase in the background leads to the third floor ballroom.

The entire third floor was used as a ballroom.

The French door in the dining room leads to the screened porch and gives a clear dining view of Bayou Texar. The extended new white and black tiled counters multiplied the kitchen work space, provided a serving area, and permitted a handy little cookbook nook, all in a very small space.

A 1947 addition includes a third bedroom upstairs and a family sunroom which the Berthelots call their "funky diversity room" with exposed beams and glass shelves of ethnic dolls, toys and folk art. The stairs to the basement can be seen on the lower left.

The door to the kitchen and basement stairs was a window to the outside before the Larcoms added this room in 1947. When the Berthelots purchased 600 Bayou, this room was in shambles, "decorated" with many pieces of mismatched junk paneling and pipes for laundry, and used for storage. After two complete renovations, it's a favorite for relaxing and TV viewing. Open pine rafters, stained dark, offer interest and an ideal place to hang a basket collection. Ron refinished and adapted a damaged antique oak Hoosier cabinet, which holds more collectibles.

Much of the year, the bungalow spreads out-of-doors. At the Berthelot home, four French doors open into the screened porch, which is comfortably furnished for relaxing, eating, and entertaining. In this Northwest Florida climate, the cooler autumn and gloriously floral spring are especially welcoming, but the shady setting, southern architecture, and a ceiling fam lure folks out even on hot summer days and nights.

Wire-mesh screen was used on windows and doors in the Victorian era, but it was the Craftsman bungalow style that introduced the screen porch to the American home. Screen porches served to blur the distinction between outside and interior space and allowed the benefits of fresh air to be enjoyed without the annoyance of insects.

The screen porch provides a large exterior living area on the south and west side of the Berthelot bungalow.

The half acre, 150 x 125 foot lot still benefits from the masterful gardening of the Larcom family who owned the home for decades. The Berthelots are particularly indebted to camellia expert Franklin B. Larcom whose legacy blooms faithfully each winter and spring.

The historic marker can be seen from the sidewalk on Zaragoza Street. The cottage can be seen on the left. In 1804, Francis Heindenberg received from the Spanish governor a lot in the city of Pensacola. Four years later he sold the property to a free black woman named Julee. The sale included a “low wooden house which I have built at my own expense”. Both house and lot sold for three hundred dollars. The house was probably built between 1804 and 1808.

The time period represented at the Lear House provides a contrast to the Victorian theme displayed at the nearby Dorr House.

The primitive pine table in the family room is from Nancy's family

The fireplaces were exposed when the dry wall was removed. Nancy discovered this double-flue fireplace when she was knocking out walls to create a door between rooms. This would have been two rooms with a separate fireplace serving each. There are gas logs installed in the house fireplaces.
