History of Madison County, Ohio : Its People, Industries and Institution with Biographical Sketches of Representative Citizens and Genealogical Records of Many of the Old Families, published 1915; History of Madison County Ohio, published 1915 has no passage naming this settlement, which was common for smaller places. Its township is covered in full.

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 281 specimens collected within 10 miles of Resaca between 1908 and 1975: 271 Animalia, 8 Fungi, 2 Plantae. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by B. Fink, Beattie R. K., Bowen, C. A. (Charles A.) 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.

The eight closest, with where each one stands in the county. Distances are straight-line, computed from the Geographic Names Information System coordinates.

Matched on this settlement's Geographic Names Information System number rather than its name, so it cannot be a different place of the same name in another state.

This settlement is recorded in the Geographic Names Information System as feature 1070912. The sheet list is computed by point-in-boundary test against the United States Geological Survey's historical topographic inventory.
