It contains the ruins of a sugar plantation owned by David Levy Yulee.[2] Yulee was a delegate of the Florida Territorial Legislative Council. After Florida became a state, he was elected by the legislature in 1845 to the US Senate, becoming the first American of Jewish heritage to serve there. After Florida seceded from the Union, Yulee served in the Confederate Congress. He is credited with having developed a network of railroads that tremendously boosted the state's economy. At Homosassa, Yulee established a sugarcane plantation, which was destroyed during the American Civil War. The original plantation covered more than {{convert|5000|acre}}, and was worked by approximately 1,000 enslaved African Americans. They raised sugarcane, citrus, and cotton. The large mill (which was steam-driven) ran from 1851 to 1864. It produced sugar, syrup and molasses, the latter used in making rum.[3] At the park, the stonework (foundation, well and 40-foot chimney) of the mill, iron gears, a cane press, and some of the other machinery remain.[3] The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 12, 1970.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{Protected areas of Florida}}{{National Register of Historic Places in Florida}}{{Florida-state-park-stub}}{{CitrusCountyFL-NRHP-stub}}{{Florida-plantation-stub}}2. ^Yulee Sugar Mill Ruins Historic State Park {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060618002548/http://www.floridastateparks.org/Yuleesugarmill/default.cfm |date=June 18, 2006 }}, Florida State Parks 3. ^1 Yulee Sugar Mill Ruins Historic State Park, Absolutely Florida 15 : Archaeological sites in Florida|Parks in Citrus County, Florida|State parks of Florida|Ruins in the United States|History of sugar|Protected areas established in 1970|Agricultural buildings and structures on the National Register of Historic Places in Florida|Industrial buildings completed in 1851|Sugar plantations in Florida|Sugar refineries|Agriculture in Florida|1851 establishments in Florida|Cotton plantations in Florida|National Register of Historic Places in Citrus County, Florida|1970 establishments in Florida |
