Hosack House

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 456 specimens collected within 10 miles of Hosack House between 1837 and 1974: 407 Animalia, 41 Fungi, 7 Plantae, 1 Protozoa. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. Hall, A. P. Morgan, Andriessen, H. 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 Hosack House: 2 producers, 1 past producer. 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 Fredericktown, the town this property stands in, in 47 storm reports between 1993 and 2026: 34 thunderstorm wind, 10 hail, 2 tornado, 1 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.

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 reproduced in full on its own page, word for word and 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.

The whole case file for this property - 449 words, 4 pages, reproduced complete.

Quoted from the National Register nomination for reference 79003867, 4 pages, held by the National Archives in Record Group 79. See the catalogue record.

Other National Register properties close enough to walk or drive between, ordered by distance from this one. Both positions come from the same geocoding pass that matched these properties to their map sheets.
