The county history of 1900 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 19 fires within 5 miles of Jessup between 2003 and 2020, burning about 50 acres in total. None started naturally. 3 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:

• May Hill
• Buck Run (historical)
• Tranquility
• Emerald
• Irvington (historical)
• Louisville

Every fire recorded in Adams County

Museums hold 157 specimens collected within 10 miles of Jessup between 1903 and 1975: 96 Animalia, 38 Fungi, 21 Plantae, 2 Protozoa. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. J. Sharp, Bartley, F., Belk, 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.
