Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 67 fires within 5 miles of McGrawville between 1997 and 2019, burning about 78 acres in total. 6 started naturally. 11 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:

• Bellville
• Hardy Corners
• Rawson
• Marshall
• Balcom Beach
• Black Creek

Every fire recorded in Allegany County

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 408 specimens collected within 10 miles of McGrawville between 1860 and 1974: 332 Animalia, 63 Plantae, 11 Fungi, 2 Protozoa. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Andrew R. Moldenke, Ball & King, Ball, G. E. 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.
