Exploring BULOW STILL a Turpentine Ghost Town
Join me exploring the old turpentine ghost town of Bulow Still.
Located in Flagler County, Florida right off the oldest road in Florida. The Old Kings Road. This ghost town seems to be from the late 1800s- early 1900s.
Lots of remains of the past lye in the sand here. Let's go on an adventure and see this old, abandoned ghost town before development comes and changes this land forever.

    Get yee metal detector find some coin and maybe even that dump... That carving was made when the tree was alive. The bark being curled in and such... guessing 125-150 years ago and based on the height off the ground. Tree might have died a long time ago. Cheers!

    There is a lot of unaccounted for grave sites in the area, my dad said in the sixties right off of the tomoka bridge they found a grave stone, but teenagers kept desecrating it so they removed the head stone so no one could find it again.

    • @eastfloridaexplorer

      Yeah, I always wondered where all the graves or cemeteries were in these areas. A lot was going on...plantations, turpentine. I've heard the story of the grave by the Tomoka before. Pretty sad.

    You figure the early settlers built their homes on those high sand ridges being it was before drainage ditches were dug. My dad remembers how Bunnell used to flood before the canals were dug. He also remembers cows crossing the roads. What a neat time that must have been !!!

    I completed an online form on Friday 31 Jan 2025 to the State of Florida Historic Cemetery that this cemetery is threatened. I also left a message with County Commissioner Larry Harvey and sent him an e-mail. I found the cemetery on findagrave listed as Mason-Denver Cemetery and sent a message to everyone who created a memorial and/or posted photos or death certificates on the memorials. There are at least 20 memorials listed and 4 of them have grave marker photos. Since this cemetery seems to be created in 1865 and apparently a Civil War battle was fought there and most of the dates on the markers are over 100 years old, this cemetery should be left alone. It is illegal to sell tombstones.

    That last end of St George is where the fire was to treasury street and yes you can notice the buildings aren't as charming. Flagler's time. Dr graham historian at Flagler mentions most people at the time thought Flagler started the fires. On old maps 10 years prior to the fires, or so, there is a huge amount of mansard french houses and windmill generators...look at old map of 1885.
