An account from the chapter on Claridon township, in the words of 1880.

The county history of 1880 has no passage naming this settlement, which was common for the smaller places. Its township is covered in full.

Museums hold 1,011 specimens collected within 10 miles of Center Road (historical) between 1885 and 1975: 886 Animalia, 117 Plantae, 8 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. M. Evans, A. N. Rood, A.E. Daugherty 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.
