This is the Paulding Quarry in far-northwestern Ohio. The quarry opened in 1949 and the rocks are used to make cement on-site. The target unit is the Middle Devonian Dundee Limestone. Overlying the Dundee is the Silica Formation, also Middle Devonian. The Silica is richly fossiliferous and consists of interbedded limestone and shale.
Locality: Paulding Quarry (= Lafarge Paulding Quarry), north-northwest of the town of Paulding, northern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA (41° 10' 57.96" North latitude, 84° 37' 21.23" West longitude)
The structure seen here is a stylolite, a pressure dissolution feature that frequently has the appearance of a hospital EKG reading. These occur in many limestones, dolostones, and some marbles, especially in or near orogenic belts.
Stratigraphy: loose block derived from the Dundee Limestone or Lucas Dolomite, Devonian
Locality: Auglaize Quarry (= Shelly Company, Stoneco's Auglaize Facility), southeast of the town of Junction, northeastern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA (41° 10' 27.83" North latitude, 84° 25' 19.75" West longitude)

Finely-laminated dolostone in the Devonian of Ohio, USA.
This is part of a large, loose block at an active quarry in far-northwestern Ohio. We were forbidden from closely approaching the walls. Rock piles on the quarry floor were available for close examination and mineral collecting.
This specimen is from the Lucas Dolomite of the Detroit River Group. The Lucas appears to consist of both dolostone and limestone. Finely-laminated, brown dolostone is a common lithology in this unit. Lack of stratigraphic control in the loose quarry blocks makes additional, specific lithologic assessments difficult. Stylolites are also present in the Lucas.
The finely laminated portions of the Lucas have been identified by other workers as microbial mats.

A mineral is a naturally-occurring, solid, inorganic, crystalline substance having a fairly definite chemical composition and having fairly definite physical properties. At its simplest, a mineral is a naturally-occurring solid chemical. Currently, there are over 5500 named and described minerals - about 200 of them are common and about 20 of them are very common. Mineral classification is based on anion chemistry. Major categories of minerals are: elements, sulfides, oxides, halides, carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and silicates.
The silicates are the most abundant and chemically complex group of minerals. All silicates have silica as the basis for their chemistry. "Silica" refers to SiO2 chemistry. The fundamental molecular unit of silica is one small silicon atom surrounded by four large oxygen atoms in the shape of a triangular pyramid - this is the silica tetrahedron - SiO4. Each oxygen atom is shared by two silicon atoms, so only half of the four oxygens "belong" to each silicon. The resulting formula for silica is thus SiO2, not SiO4.
The simplest & most abundant silicate mineral in the Earth's crust is quartz (SiO2). All other silicates have silica + impurities. Many silicates have a significant percentage of aluminum (the aluminosilicates).
Quartz (silicon dioxide/silica - SiO2) is the most common mineral in the Earth's crust. It is composed of the two most abundant elements in the crust - oxygen and silicon. It has a glassy, nonmetallic luster, is commonly clearish to whitish to grayish in color, has a white streak, is quite hard (H≡7), forms hexagonal crystals, has no cleavage, and has conchoidal fracture. Quartz can be any color: clear, white, gray, black, brown, pink, red, purple, blue, green, orange, etc.
Seen here is concentrically-crystallized quartz in Devonian carbonate rock at a quarry in northwestern Ohio. Other minerals at this site include pyrite, calcite, sphalerite, and fluorite.
Stratigraphy: likely derived from the Lucas Dolomite, upper Detroit River Group, Devonian

Located on the former courthouse square in Paragould, this old beauty was erected in 1888 with the designs of architect J.E. Shane (he may have not been the original architect, but the architect of the renovation in 1918). It was replaced as the county's capitol in 1996-97 when the current Greene County Courthouse was constructed just to the west across the street from this one.
This Georgian Colonial structure was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
The WWI Monument in the foreground was erected in 1920 using the work of John Paulding. It, too, was placed on the National Register in 1997.

Chillicothe, Ohio is a charming small town located in the south of the state, between Columbus and Portsmouth on the Scioto River. It has served as the seat of Ross County since the late 18th century, was the capital of the Northwest Territory (1800-03), and was Ohio's first and third state capital (1803-10 and 1812-16).

The Auglaize River is a 113-mile-long (182 km) tributary of the Maumee River in northwestern Ohio in the United States. It drains a primarily rural farming area in the watershed of Lake Erie. The name of the river either comes from a French term for "frozen water."
It rises in southeastern Allen County, approximately 10 miles (16 km) southeast of Lima and 12 miles (19 km) north of Indian Lake. It flows southwest to Wapakoneta, then generally north in a zigzag course, past Delphos, Fort Jennings and Oakwood. It joins the Maumee from the south at Defiance, approximately 2 miles (3 km) east of the mouth of the Tiffin River.
It receives the Ottawa River from the southeast in western Putnam County, northwest of Lima. It also receives the Blanchard River in western Putnam County. It receives the Little Auglaize River from the south in eastern Paulding County. It receives Flatrock Creek from the west in northeastern Paulding County.
During the days of the Ohio Country in the 18th century, the area around the river was inhabited by the Ottawa. Fort Amanda, constructed along the river southwest of Lima in 1812, was an important American outpost during the War of 1812. Fort Defiance was constructed in 1794 near the confluence of the Auglaize and the Maumee by General Mad Anthony Wayne.

Nucleocrinus elegans Conrad, 1842 - fossil blastoids in fossiliferous calcareous shale from the Devonian of Ohio, USA.
Blastoids are an extinct group of echinoderms. They resemble crinoids in having a head, or theca, perched atop a long stem of stacked columnals composed of calcite. Crinoids and blastoids are pelmatozoans - stalked echinoderms. Both groups are sessile, benthic, filter-feeding organisms. The overall structure and morphology of crinoid heads and blastoid heads are quite different. Blastoid heads have pentaradial symmetry and somewhat resemble closed flower buds or nuts. They have 5 ambulacral grooves extending outward and downward from the summit of the theca. During life, many thin, delicate brachioles extended from the ambulacral grooves - these structures captured tiny particles of food from seawater as the blastoid engaged in filter feeding.
Classification: Animalia, Echinodermata, Blastozoa, Blastoidea, Spiraculata, Nucleocrinidae
Stratigraphy: Silica Formation, Middle Devonian
Locality: quarry near Paulding, northwestern Ohio, USA

John Harrod was born December 24, 1826 in Alabama. He was the son of William L. Harrod (October 20, 1786-September 1, 1866) and Sarah Chewning (May 5, 1785-July 16, 1856). At some point his family moved to Cadaretta, Choctaw Co., MS. At the age of 35, he was elected 1st Lieutenant of Co. G, "Sons of Liberty" which later became the "Davis Guards," of the 33rd Mississippi Infantry Regiment. On August 19, 1863 he was promoted to Major of the regiment. Compiled Service Records do not indicate the exact date he was promoted to Lt. Colonel, but it was probably early January 1864. As the war for the 33rd Mississippi Infantry moved into Georgia, it was at New Hope Church, a few miles from Atlanta, that the Lt. Colonel was wounded "while gallantly leading his regiment in an attack" and later died on June 11, 1864.
According to his daughter's recollections of the war,
"He was shot through the hand and the knee, just as he raised up from behind a tree with his hand on his knee. They had discovered the Yankee scouts on the other side of the hill. Father's boys gave the blood curdling Confederate yell and the Yankees fled; and so they were able to carry Father back to camp. The little church was used as a hospital. They amputated his leg, and when it was nearly healed, gangrene set in, and he died, like thousands of others, died for lack of proper antiseptics...They made him a coffin of one of the church doors, wrapped him in his soldiers (sic) blanket, and buried him there in a nameless grave." (1)
Prior to the war, On March 6, 1851, John had married Sophia Ann Coleman Smith (May 8, 1833-June 21, 1902) in Cadaretta, Choctaw Co., MS. They had five children. After the war she and the children moved to California.

Antwerp is a village in Paulding County, Ohio, United States, along the Maumee River. The population was 1,740 at the 2000 census.
Antwerp is the nearest village to the Six Mile Reservoir, the site of the Reservoir War in 1887. The place is named after the Belgian city of Antwerp.
Antwerp is located in the former wetland region known until the 19th century as the Great Black Swamp. The area was avoided by the early settlers due to its thick forestation and extensive swamps and marshes. After the area had been drained, small industries developed here, and the construction of the canals along the Maumee River in the 1840s and the land reclamation project that followed helped convert the former swamplands into fertile farmlands, leading to the growth of a farming community in Antwerp.
In the late 19th century, Antwerp was the largest village in Paulding County; its economy was driven by a lucrative local logging industry. Accordingly, when the Wabash, St. Louis and Pacific Railway decided to erect a train station in the village, it was built larger than stations in most other communities in the region. After the train station closed in 1976, it was purchased by the local historical society; today, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the "Antwerp Norfolk and Western Depot".

The Paulding County Courthouse is a historic governmental building in downtown Paulding, Ohio, United States. A Richardsonian Romanesque building erected in 1886, it is the third courthouse to serve the residents of Paulding County.
When Paulding County was established in 1820, the small community of Charloe was named the county seat. This arrangement proved to be short-lived: the older community of Paulding grew significantly while Charloe stagnated, and the county seat was eventually moved to the larger village. Once Paulding had been named the county seat, the county's second courthouse was erected on the village's central square in 1837. After approximately fifty years of service, this frame structure was demolished, and the present structure was built on the same location in 1886.
Designed by the E.O. Fallis Company and built by workers under the direction of general contractor Rudolph Ehrhart,[1] the courthouse is a brick structure with a stone foundation and a roof of asphalt. Two-and-one-half stories tall with a central tower, the courthouse features nearly identical entrances on each of its four sides. Measuring 163 feet tall at the tip of its domed tower, the courthouse was patterned after the Lenawee County Courthouse in Michigan, which was also designed by the Fallis architects.
Built in 1972, this structure serves the 1st District of Jasper County. It is located in one of the state's smallest county seats.
The other Jasper County seat is Bay Springs.
Paulding is a tiny village that once had a much larger population but has seen much decline ever since the Reconstruction Era. It is today Mississippi's only unincorporated county seats.
Phacops rana crassituberculata Stumm, 1953 - enrolled fossil trilobite from the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (Dave Mielke collection; temporary public display, Ohio Geological Survey, Columbus, Ohio, USA)
This fossil is also known as Eldredgeops rana crassituberculata.
Trilobites are extinct marine arthropods. They first appear in Lower Cambrian rocks and the entire group went extinct at the end of the Permian. Trilobites had a calcitic exoskeleton and nonmineralizing parts underneath (legs, gills, gut, etc.). The calcite skeleton is most commonly preserved in the fossil record, although soft-part preservation is known in some trilobites (Ex: Burgess Shale and Hunsruck Slate). Trilobites had a head (cephalon), a body of many segments (thorax), and a tail (pygidium). Molts and carcasses usually fell apart quickly - most trilobite fossils are isolated parts of the head (cranidium and free cheeks), individual thoracic segments, or isolated pygidia. The name "trilobite" was introduced in 1771 by Johann Ernst Immanuel Walch and refers to the tripartite division of the trilobite body - it has a central axial lobe that runs longitudinally from the head to the tail, plus two side lobes (pleural lobes).
Seen here is a famous trilobite whose remains are relatively common in the Middle Devonian-aged Silica Formation of northeastern Ohio. This is Phacops rana crassituberculata (also known as Eldredgeops, an unnecessary genus name based on taxonomic oversplitting). Phacops trilobite fossils occur with other typical Middle Paleozoic shallow marine invertebrates: brachiopods, bryozoans, crinoids, and corals.
Classification: Animalia, Arthropoda, Trilobita, Polymerida, Phacopidae
