National Register reference number.06000318- the number the National Park Service assigned this property when it was listed, and the key its nomination file is catalogued under at the National Archives.

The ground this property stands on, surveyed
80 years apart. Drag the handle to wipe between them. Both sheets are
United States Geological Survey originals; neither has been altered.
Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. The
federal wildfire occurrence database
lists 8 fires within 5 miles of St. Paul's Reformed Church
between 2005 and 2020, burning about 16 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.

them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service
that recorded it.
Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. Museums hold 108 specimens
collected within 10 miles of St. Paul's Reformed Church between 1875 and 1975: 99 Animalia, 5 Plantae, 2 Fungi, 1 Unrecorded, 1 Chromista.
12 distinct Species records are shown.
Collected by Armbruster, D. C. (Daniel C.), Borror, D.J., Bruce Fink 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.
Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. The federal mineral resources record lists
9 workings within 5 miles of St. Paul's Reformed Church: 7 producers, 2 past producers.
7 still produce. What was taken out: Sand and Gravel, Construction, Stone, Crushed/Broken, Fire Clay (Refractory), Clay, Stone, Crushed/Broken. Distance is straight-line from the
map coordinates, so a quarry counted here may appear on a neighbouring
settlement's page as well.
Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. The National Weather Service names
Navarre, the town this property stands in, in 14 storm reports between 1994 and 2020: 9 thunderstorm wind, 5 hail.
The reports record 1 injury. 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.
The fire department reported 8 to 10 trees either sheared or uprooted when thunderstorms came through in the vicinity of Pidgeon Run Avenue Southwest and Poorman Street southwest in Navarre.
Multiple trees down in Navarre. Several dozen pine trees snapped or uprooted at the corner of Beth Avenue and Seeman Street SW in Bethlehem Township (i.e. 2 miles southeast of Navarre).

testing that coordinate against the published boundary of every 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.
