The Catholic church of Fernandina Beach was founded in 1784 in the community of Old Town. Due to the construction of the railroad by David Yulee, the town was relocated away from the river to its present site. By 1859, a wooden church was built in the same area as the current church. This historic church is named in honor of Father Michael de Aunon, who was martyred in 1597 at St. Catherine’s Island in Georgia during the Indian Rebellion against the Franciscans.
