Specimens collected near this property
12 of 1,546 shown
Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. Museums hold 1,546 specimens
collected within 10 miles of Pleasant Hill between 1850 and
1975: 972 Fungi, 454 Animalia, 75 Plantae, 40 Protozoa, 3 Chromista, 2 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown.
Collected by 14753, A JOHN, A JOHN AND R KNOTTS 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
3 workings within 5 miles of Pleasant Hill: 1 producer, 1 past producer, 1 plant.
2 still produce. What was taken out: Sand and Gravel, Construction. 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
Milford, the town this property stands in, in 49 storm reports between 1996 and 2023: 21 hail, 18 thunderstorm wind, 3 lightning, 3 flash flood.
The reports record 3 injuries. 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.
Hall Run Creek came out of its banks. Several roads were flooded, stranding a couple of vehicles. A few homes sustained basement flooding near Milford.

From the nomination file
16,096 words on record
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.
