The H. S. Williams House was a historic U.S. home located at 1219 Rockledge Drive, Rockledge, Florida. Hiram Smith Williams built the house in 1880 after moving to the area in 1874 from Alabama. Williams grew citrus, founded Brevard Telephone Company, and served as a Florida state senator. The third floor of the home was used as a schoolroom for children, becoming one of the first schools in the county. Brevard County purchased the home in 1989 and restored it. In 2012, the Preservation and Education Trust from Rockledge was raising money to turn the house into a historic museum.
