Petroleum in a Hexagonaria fossil coral from the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (Dave Mielke collection; temporary public display, Ohio Geological Survey, Columbus, Ohio, USA)

 

Corals are essentially sea anemones (polyps) that make a skeleton, which is usually mineralized. Most corals are colonial, but some are solitary. This particular fossil is Hexagonaria, a colonial rugose coral having many hexagonally-shaped corallites, as seen in plan view (click on the photo to zoom in - the corallite shapes are a tad difficult to discern here).

 

The black areas are petroleum. Hydrocarbons have migrated into fractures and other porous areas of the coral. The black spots are corallite centers. This specimen is from northwestern Ohio, which had a significant petroleum system that was heavily exploited in the late 1800s. Ohio used to be the # 1 petroleum exporter in the world!

 

Classification: Animalia, Cnidaria, Anthozoa, Rugosa, Phillipsastraeidae

 

Stratigraphy: Dundee Limestone, Middle Devonian

 

Locality: quarry northwest of the town of Paulding, northern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA (41° 10' 52.55" North latitude, 84° 37' 19.32" West longitude)

On Saturday, September 23, 2017 the Old Van Cortlandtville Cemetery Association held a Plaque Dedication to unveil a new marker for the John Paulding gravesite. I was honored to be a part of the ceremony and also to secure the funds needed to create the plaque. Knowing of my interest and involvement in promoting history and being a Revolutionary War Reenactor for over 40 years, members of the association approached me hoping I would help in the creation of the plaque. I was glad to have the opportunity to have a hand in the initiative to create the plaque and was able to obtain the funding required to have the plaque created and installed.

 

The act of John Paulding and his comrades Isaac Van Wart and David Williams capturing British spy Major John Andre was a turning point in our nation’s history. In recent years, the story has a renewed interest due the background setting of West Point, George Washington, Benedict Arnold and especially the new details regarding the spy ring involved in the war. A number of books and even a television series has appeared in just the last few years giving renewed interest in the story.

 

John Paulding, the lead figure in the capture of Andre, is buried in the Old Van Cortlandt Cemetery just yards from the historic Revolutionary War Era Old St. Peter’s Church. He died in 1818 at the age of 60 and was honored with a prominent site and stone/obelisk structure. Over time, the words engraved into the marble monument have faded and it is just a matter of time until they are lost forever. The new plague that was installed replicates the engraved words exactly so as to preserve them for generations to come.

Euryzone arata (Hall, 1862) - fossil snail in limestone in the Devonian of Ohio, USA

 

The gastropods (snails & slugs) are a group of molluscs that occupy marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments. Most have a calcareous external shell (the snails). Some lack a shell completely, or have reduced internal shells (the slugs & sea slugs & pteropods). Most members of the Gastropoda are marine. Most marine snails are herbivores (algae grazers) or predators/carnivores.

Petroleum in a favositid fossil coral in the Devonian of Ohio, USA.

 

Corals are essentially sea anemones (polyps) that make a skeleton, which is usually mineralized. Most corals are colonial, but some are solitary. This particular fossil is a favositid, or "honeycomb coral", an extinct group of tabulate corals.

 

The black areas are petroleum. Hydrocarbons have migrated into fractures and other porous areas of the coral. This specimen is in a quarry in northwestern Ohio, which had a significant petroleum system that was heavily exploited in the late 1800s. Ohio used to be the # 1 petroleum exporter in the world!

Machaeracanthus sp. - fossil fish spine from the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (Dave Mielke collection; temporary public display, Ohio Geological Survey, Columbus, Ohio, USA)

 

Machaeracanthus was a type of acanthodian fish, an extinct group of jawed fish that had spines along the anterior margin of each fin. The root word “acanth” means “spine”. Acanthodians were the first fish to evolve jaws and scales.

Rose Pink (Sabatia angularis), also called Rose Gentian. Pickett's Mill Battlefield State Historic Site, Paulding County, Georgia.

Horror in Dallas, Georgia? A little inside humor. There's a statue of a 19th century official right across from our courthouse. It's been missing a hand forever, so I made this little supposition of what that hand may have been up to all these years!

With love to Paulding county, Georgia from one of your residents!

Paulding, Mississippi

 

It is estimated that the jail was constructed between 1895-1900, based on newspaper articles as the county records were lost in a courthouse fire in 1932. The Pauly Jail Building & Manufacturing Co. of St Louis built it. These remains sit behind the Paulding PO. It was badly deteriorated when it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994 and has since basically fallen in on itself. This old jail could pretty much stand as the symbol for the "town" of Paulding. If you've ever been there you know what I mean.

Stylolite in limestone in the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (cross-section view)

 

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. The host rock here is limestone, a biogenic sedimentary rock composed of calcite (CaCO3 - calcium carbonate). Most limestones formed in ancient, warm, shallow ocean environments.

 

Stratigraphy: loose piece, probably derived from the Dundee Limestone, Middle Devonian

 

Locality: quarry northwest of the town of Paulding, northern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA (41° 10' 52.55" North latitude, 84° 37' 19.32" West longitude)

The 1917 History of Maumee Valley provides a brief description:

 

The first white settler in [Paulding County] was Shadrach Hudson, who arrived in the year 1819. He came from Miami County and built a log house on the right bank of the Auglaize River, about half a mile east of the present Village of Junction. It was in the usual style, being constructed of square logs, was two stories in height, and had a huge fire-place in one end. . . . It commanded a splendid view both up and down the river. He had also served in the American army during the War of 1812, and was so impressed with the fertility and natural beauty of this site that he decided to make it his home.

 

That Hudson found the site beautiful is surprising; Paulding County, in 1819, existed at the heart of Ohio's Great Black Swamp, a region whose land settlers considered nearly worthless.

Located in Waldo Park in Salem, Oregon behind the Veteran's Affairs building, this World War I Monument was designed by John Paulding. For more information about this statue and Mr. Paulding, please see this website: doughboysearcher.weebly.com/the-doughboy-war-viquesney-vs...
