Museums hold 290 specimens collected within 10 miles of Mount Gilead between 1837 and 1975: 276 Animalia, 7 Plantae, 6 Fungi, 1 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. P. Morgan, Adler, K. K., Bird, C. 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.

The federal mineral resources record lists 1 working within 5 miles of Mount Gilead: 1 producer. All of them still produce. What was taken out: Phosphorus-Phosphates. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a quarry counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

Every working recorded in Morrow County

The eight closest, with where each one stands in the county. Distances are straight-line, computed from the Geographic Names Information System coordinates.
