Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 7 fires within 5 miles of Pinhook between 2007 and 2019, burning about 4 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.

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 657 specimens collected within 10 miles of Pinhook between 1835 and 1972: 470 Plantae, 181 Animalia, 6 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A.M.H., Aknown, C F WALKER 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.
