The county history of 1885 has no passage naming this settlement, which was common for the smaller places. Its township is covered in full.

Museums hold 631 specimens collected within 10 miles of Hilltown (historical) between 1880 and 1975: 374 Animalia, 223 Plantae, 31 Fungi, 1 Protozoa, 1 Unrecorded, 1 Bacteria. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. D. Huryn, A. F. Clewell, A. K. Wyatt 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.
