An account from the chapter on Belpre township, in the words of 1902.

The county history of 1902 has no passage naming this settlement, which was common for the smaller places. Its township is covered in full.

The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 27 fires within 5 miles of Corner between 1995 and 2019, burning about 20 acres in total. None started naturally. 1 was 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:

• Little Hocking
• Redbush
• Armenia (historical)
• Porterfield
• Barclay Acres
• Belpre

Every fire recorded in Washington County

Museums hold 325 specimens collected within 10 miles of Corner between 1877 and 1974: 159 Animalia, 145 Fungi, 18 Plantae, 3 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. C. Kinsey, Archer W. A., Archer, W. A. 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.
