National Register reference number.86001643- 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.
Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. Museums hold 7,059 specimens
collected within 10 miles of Riddle-Friend House between 1819 and 1975: 3,961 Fungi, 1,746 Animalia, 892 Plantae, 406 Protozoa, 33 Unrecorded, 20 Chromista, 1 Bacteria.
12 distinct Species records are shown.
Collected by 14753, A Schwartz, A. Braun 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 Riddle-Friend House: 1 past producer, 1 producer, 1 unknown.
1 still produces. What was taken out: Sand and Gravel, Construction, Zirconium, Titanium. 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
Wyoming, the town this property stands in, in 4 storm reports between 1999 and 2012: 2 hail, 1 thunderstorm wind, 1 flash 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.
United States Geological Survey topographic
sheets whose coverage includes this point. Matched by taking the coordinate the National Park Service records for this property, then
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.
