Welcome to the Dinsmore Web Site.
Dinsmore is a community located in the northern part of Duval County.
The community of Dinsmore is nestled on both sides of US Highway #1.
Dinsmore has been in existence and shown on maps since at least 1895.
Click on the button below to view the 1895 Map.
Old Kings Road also runs thru Dinsmore. This road was built
before the Revolutionary War by the British. It ran from St Augustine
northwards well into Georgia. I learned this information from a book
titled "The Book of Jacksonville" published in 1895.
It is my desire to continue to add families and history to these
pages. Please feel free to email me information that you would like
to have placed on these pages.
It would be nice if someone living in Dinsmore volunteered to keep
me up to date on happenings in Dinsmore. I would display any news
on this front page.
