Collected by A. D. Selby, A. Lose, A.E. Daugherty 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
4 workings within 5 miles of Fallen Timbers Battlefield: 2 producers, 1 past producer, 1 plant.
3 still produce. What was taken out: Stone, Dimension, Limestone, General, Stone, Crushed/Broken. Distance is straight-line from the

Maumee, the town this property stands in, in 49 storm reports between 1997 and 2023: 26 hail, 19 thunderstorm wind, 2 flash flood, 1 heavy rain.
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.
Very heavy rainfall started across Lucas County around 7:30 pm, with the heaviest rain falling between 8 pm and 9 pm, and then again between 12:30 am and 1:30 am. Rainfall totals in the area included 5.00 inches at the intersection of I-475 and US 23, 4.31 inches in Sylvania, 3.70 inches at the Toledo airport, and 3.39 inches in Point Place. Widespread flooding resulted, with many cars stranded citywide in underpasses and along flooded streets. Flooding occurred in neighborhoods along several area drainages, including Shantee Creek, Swan Creek, and Heldman Ditch. Over 100 basements were flooded from the excess runoff, and the Oregon municipal building was completely surrounded by water.
On March 12th an ice jam formed on the Maumee River in Maumee Ohio. The river was frozen from Maumee to the mouth of the river at Lake Erie. The ice jam and subsequent water rises caused the Side Cut Metropark to close and experience record flooding. The road between Jerome Road and an access road east of Riverside Cemetery was damaged by the moving ice and needed repairs. In Maumee the Side Cut Metropark sustained around $50,000 in damages. The Riverside Cemetery is estimated to have sustained $1 million in damages. In Monclova the ice jams damaged two homes on North River Road. These homes sustained damage from the ice to their decks and exterior. Only one of the two homes had water inundation into the interior. The waste water treatment plant was impacted by the ice and rising river levels and had to bring in pumps to keep operations going.
Heavy rainfall caused extensive flooding of roadways in the Toledo metro area. Some flooded locations included Secor Road near Sylvania Avenue and also south of Central Avenue, and portions of Interstate 475. Multiple reports of cars being stranded due to driving into flooded roadways. Lower level apartment flooding was also reported in South Toledo. Radar estimates and measured rainfall reports indicated 2.25 to 3 inches of rain fell, primarily in a two hour period.
