Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 28 fires within 5 miles of Fulmer Valley between 1995 and 2019, burning about 83 acres in total. 3 started naturally. 2 were recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Hallsport
• Independence
• Dyke (historical)
• Elm Valley
• Paynesville
• Stannards

Every fire recorded in Allegany County

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 386 specimens collected within 10 miles of Fulmer Valley between 1870 and 1973: 361 Animalia, 11 Plantae, 10 Fungi, 3 Unrecorded, 1 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. Hazzard, A. L. Moldenke, A. P. Garber and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
