Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. Museums hold 85 specimens
collected within 10 miles of Noble County Jail and Sheriff's Office between 1884 and
1974: 50 Animalia, 31 Plantae, 3 Fungi, 1 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown.
Collected by Adams, W., Adler, K. K., Adler, K. K. & Dennis, D. M. 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.

Caldwell, the town this property stands in, in 39 storm reports between 1994 and 2025: 15 thunderstorm wind, 12 flash flood, 6 hail, 6 flood.
No death or injury is recorded in these reports. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office
filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date
opens the federal record of that event.
Between 3 and 4 pm EST, a total of 3 inches of rain was reported 4 miles south of Caldwell. The strong thunderstorm also dropped pea size hail. Other thunderstorms in the county also caused significant street flooding. Street flooding was first reported in Caldwell. Numerous small streams were reported out of their banks. The intersection of SR 260 and SR 724 near Carlisle was flooded. CR 12 and SR 821 near Ava was flooded. A 1-2 mile stretch of SR 513 between Summersfield and Batesville was flooded. SR 215 was closed near Belle Valley.

Named in the fire insurance atlases
Sanborn surveyors printed an index of the
town's establishments at the front of each atlas. This property is named in
one, read straight off the scanned sheet.
When this property was proposed for the
National Register, someone wrote the case for it: what the building is,
and why it matters. That document is a federal record in the public domain.
It is quoted below word for word, never summarised. The text was read off the scanned case file by machine, so the
occasional stray character is the recogniser's and the 1970s
typewriter's.
