In 1586 Gonzalez led a mission send for Pedro Menéndez de Márquez to a legendary strait located "beyond" Florida, where several villages were established, of which Menendez de Marquez wanted to learn. González confirmed the reality of this strait by the data obtained from a local cacique. Vicente González was appointment lieutenant of Menéndez de Marquez in Santa Elena, together to Captain Tomás Bernaldo de Quirós, in 1577, governing it until 1580. In November 22, 1577, González was appointment governor of Florida, holding office until 1578. In October 1586, Gonzalez told the Council of the Indies that near St. Augustine, Florida, was a port next to a fertile land with gold and diamond mines, which was densely populated by indigenous. The Council decided that this land should be studied in depth and Spanish shipwreck victims to settle there. In the 1980s Vicente González led several voyages into the Chesapeake in search of English settlements in the area.
