    TOMOKA HISTORICAL TRAIL (From Interstate 95 Exit 278, drive east, southeast and south on Old Dixie Hwy. to park at the south end of Ormond Tomb Park. Walk northwest 300 feet.) 1 West side of Old Dixie Hwy., between Walter Boardman Ln. and 0.0 Bulow Creek James Ormond Tomb Park Capt. James Ormond of Scotland received a grant for a plantation near here in 1804, which he named Damietta. He was killed by a runaway slave in 1817 and was buried at Nordman's Point. James Ormond II moved here with his wife and four children in 1824. The settlers were on friendly terms and knew Indian chiefs King Philip, Billy Bowlegs, and Coacoochee. Ormond died in 1829 and was buried on the plantation. The family moved to Charleston, South Carolina in 1832. Damietta became the property of Samuel H. Williams, who turned it into his Orange Grove Plantation. Two-thirds of it was sold by the tax collector for his failure to pay state and county taxes for 1849. Inscribed on the grave of James Ormond II is "An Honest Man". The tomb was badly damaged by vandals but was restored and maintained by Maud Van Woy. The nine-acre site was donated to the Park Service in 1945. (Walk northeast to Old Dixie Hwy. and north 700 feet, then east on the park entrance road to the large oak tree.) 2 Bulow Creek State Park, east of Old Dixie Hwy. 0.4 Ormond-Fairchild Oak This tree is said to be over 2,000 years old and is one of the largest in the county.
