A Complete History of Fairfield County, Ohio, published 1877 names this settlement in its chapter on Greenfield Township. These are the passages that mention it, exactly as the scans read.

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 6 fires within 5 miles of Dumontville between 2008 and 2020, burning about 7 acres in total. None started naturally. None 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:

• Colonial Estates
• Hooker
• Wacker Heights
• Baltimore
• Carpenters Addition
• Havensport

Every fire recorded in Fairfield County

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 2,142 specimens collected within 10 miles of Dumontville between 1843 and 1975: 1,797 Animalia, 259 Fungi, 77 Plantae, 6 Protozoa, 2 Chromista, 1 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Asa Gray; W. S. Sullivant, Bales, B. R., Bangham, R. V. 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.
