United States Geological Survey originals; neither has been altered.
The chapter covers the first settlements, organization of the township, township officers, schools, the towns: farmington, colerain, pleasant grove, maynard and barton, the settlement of friends.
Machine-read from a century-old scan, so
expect the errors a machine makes: misspelled names, dropped words,
stray characters.
Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. The
federal wildfire occurrence database
lists 22 fires within 5 miles of Concord Hicksite Friends Meeting House
between 1997 and 2020, burning about 42 acres in total. None started naturally. 1 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.

Regional context, not property-specific

collected within 10 miles of Concord Hicksite Friends Meeting House between 1800 and 1975: 1,037 Plantae, 117 Fungi, 82 Animalia, 2 Unrecorded.
12 distinct Species records are shown.
Collected by A. D. Selby, A. D. Selby & E. L. Moseley, A. D. Selby & J. F. Hicks 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.

evidence. The federal mineral resources record lists

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.
