An account from the chapter on Coshocton city, in the words of 1909.

The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 19 fires within 5 miles of Roscoe between 2007 and 2020, burning about 18 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:

• Clowville (historical)
• Coshocton
• Edgewood Terrace
• Pleasant Valley
• Randle
• Hardscrabble

Every fire recorded in Coshocton County

Museums hold 1,685 specimens collected within 10 miles of Roscoe between 1846 and 1974: 893 Animalia, 658 Plantae, 124 Fungi, 4 Bacteria, 4 Protozoa, 2 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. D. Huryn, A. Spreitzer, Albaugh, W. F. 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.
