  Located near this site is the Pine Ridge African American Cemetery where the sons and daughters of freed slaves who helped construct the FEC railway, planted orange groves, and were domestic workers for the residents of the Town of Blake were buried.

In 1966 the City of South Daytona declared the cemetery abandoned and no longer respected by the public as a cemetery.
