that recorded it.
Regional context, not property-specific
evidence. Museums hold 1,786 specimens
collected within 10 miles of Mace, Henry, House between 1874 and
1975: 1,337 Animalia, 349 Fungi, 93 Plantae, 3 Unrecorded, 3 Protozoa, 1 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown.
Collected by A. C. Kinsey, A. Cronquist, A. Miller 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
5 workings within 5 miles of Mace, Henry, House: 3 past producers, 2 producers.
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
Chillicothe, the town this property stands in, in 92 storm reports between 1995 and 2025: 56 thunderstorm wind, 24 hail, 6 flood, 3 lightning.
The reports record 1 death and 6 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.
Problems with high water occurred across the county. A roof of a gas station on the west side of Chillicothe collapsed under the weight of the heavy rain.

From the nomination file
5,089 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.
