To Nyttend: I am now preparing to submit "Batch07" focussing on Ohio state issues only. I rearranged sections here to put easy typo correction items first, and to put harder-for-National-Register-to-correct items later. The listed-but-demolished cases all will require state SHPO contact and approval, if not requiring SHPO to do field confirmations and for them to submit a separate change request form to the National Register in Washington, D.C. Could you please take a look through and edit further? ALL CAPS notes there indicate something is needed, like a decision about what we want to request. About the items within section "street address issues: harder", and for other items, are we (meaning you :) ) willing to do further research which would make the National Register's changes easier? I wonder if we should ask for the NRHP documents for those ones, instead of requesting that they check the NRHP documents and/or do other research towards making corrections. If we (you) would be interested in getting and using the NRHP docs to create/develop articles, it could possibly make sense to postpone change requests for those. You would then have to say which ones of those you would like to get NRHP docs for, instead. On the other hand, it would be fine to request to them that they do the research, and/or sort it out with state/local staff where needed. I'll wait for some response from you before submitting this batch, which is otherwise nearly ready to go. doncram (talk) 17:11, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There was some chat at my Talk page. I'm renumbering, dropping the Federal Plaza one, and submitting the Batch07 numbered items below. --doncram (talk) 16:35, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Masonic Temple (Springfield, Ohio), listed or not, on December 17, 2008, refnum = 08001195. The National Register's NRIS database indicates that the building's listing status is "DR", which signifies "DATE RECEIVED/PENDING NOMINATION".[1] In cases of similarly indicated status, it has turned out the place was later fully NRHP-listed while the NRIS status was erroneously not updated.
NRHP lists Monroe County bridge as Foreaker Bridge, but Monroe County Engineer (bridge's owner), ODOT, and Monroe County Economic Development Office all say it is Foraker Bridge. I also found a post from a person named Foraker with relatives in the area of the bridge, saying that Foraker is a common name of surrouding people. Considering there is no sign on the bridge itself and the above facts, I would surmise the application was misnamed. [1][2][3]Brian Powell (talk) 14:52, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Westrn Female Seminary in Oxford: correct "Westrn" to "Western". There's also a numbering or listing date error: its reference number is 09000083, as if it were listed in 2009, but its listing date is September 17, 1979. Nyttend (talk) 21:59, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Mistake in NRIS identified by User:Anythingyouwant. The NARA site echoes this error. Ohio Historic Inventory document (available at at NARA version) uses "Pfeiffer" and that is what appears in MPS signatures page. So the error was a typo in NRIS data entry apparently.
Pisgah Christian Church in Brown County is located "NW of Ripley on Pisgah Rd", but is inexplicably listed in Wilmington, nearly 50 miles to the north. Needs to be changed to Ripley or to Georgetown (through which one must pass to get to Wilmington), or to Union Township, in which it is located. Nyttend (talk) 15:37, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Typo in architect name for Scarlet Oaks: Note refnum 72001021 Plum Street Temple, 8th and Plum Sts., Cincinnati, OH with architect="Wilson,James Keys" while refnum 73001468 Scarlet Oaks, 440 Lafayette Ave., Cincinnati, OH with architect="Wilson,James Key". The correct spelling is Keys not Key, for architect James Keys Wilson. doncram (talk) 23:15, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Typo in name for Ohio covered bridge builder Everett S. Sherman. NRIS gives name as "Evrett S. Sherman", the correct spelling is apparently Everett not Evrett. Everett spelling used in HAER document for Harshman Covered Bridge. The correction is needed in NRIS listings for:
White Bridge, in Mahoning County, Ohio: It crosses "Yellow" Creek, not "Yello" Creek. There is no "Yello Creek" in Ohio. Additionally, "Poland Village" is actually the same thing as Poland, Ohio.
batch07:22
Conrad Neff House: There is no such thing as "Canfield-Boardman" Road. It should either be "Boardman-Canfield" Road or U.S. Route 224.
The Booth Homestead in Guernsey County is listed as being "North of Guernsey at 8433 Wheeling Township Rd.", without the number of the road being given; Google Maps shows the road as being TR 838. Nyttend (talk) 15:55, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The William Walker, Jr., House in Upper Sandusky is listed at 132-134 S. 4th St.; it's actually at 132-134 North (not South) Fourth. Coords show it on N. 4th, and this page from a local history book places the house on the corner of Walker and Fourth, which Google Maps shows to be on N. 4th, not S. 4th. Nyttend (talk) 02:57, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The Hoover Farm in North Canton is listed as being "S of North Canton on Easton St"; coordinates and address place it east of central North Canton, not south. It's actually within the city limits, but on the far eastern edge. Nyttend (talk) 21:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Central Tower Building, listed February 8, 1980 at 1 Federal Plaza West, Youngstown should be changed from "West Federal Plaza" to Federal Plaza West No, at least per Elkman system, this is correctly listed at "1 Federal Plaza West, Youngstown, Ohio", no change needed.
First National Bank Building, listed February 8, 1980, 6 Federal Plaza West, Youngstown, should be changed from "West Federal Plaza" to Federal Plaza West NO, per Elkman, this is correctly listed at "6 Federal Plaza West, Youngstown, Ohio"
Jay's Lunch, listed July 23, 1986, 258 Federal Plaza West, needs change from "West Federal Plaza" to Federal Plaza West No this is correctly listed at 258 Federal Plaza W.
Kress Building, listed July 23, 1986, 111-121 Federal Plaza West, needs change from "West Federal Plaza" to Federal Plaza West, no this is correctly listed at Federal Plaza W.
THERE ARE A NUMBER MORE "FEDERAL PLAZA" ITEMS IN MAHONING LIST TO CHECK
(not included in batch07)
U.S. Post Office and Chester Town Hall in Chesterville are both listed at the junction of Sandusky and South Streets, which don't intersect. The buildings are both located at the junction of Sandusky and Short Streets; NRIS coordinates accurately show both buildings there.. Nyttend (talk) 01:20, 23 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Addressing the items in this section may require obtaining NRHP nomination document and also referring to atlases or other sources, and making some judgment. Wikipedia editors' suggested changes indicated here.
Suggest change from "U.S. Route 40" to "County Road 40 (Plainview Road)"
batch07:42
Round Barn near Van Wert (Van Wert County) is listed along State Route 224. Here in fact it's a U.S. Route, instead, U.S. Route 224, not a state route — this is a common error made by residents of western Ohio. --Nyttend
Suggest change from State Route 224 to U.S. Route 224.
SR 541 previously was numbered SR 271 before the Interstate was built. The original SR 271 used to extend east of I-77 but was truncated after Salt Fork lake was built.
So NRHP nomination info may been correct originally, but location needs updating. Suggest checking NRHP nomination document and also maps, and then making some determination.
Suggest checking NRHP nomination document and also maps, and then making some determination, perhaps to accept "Claysville Rd." instead.

Samuel Danford Farm, Church and Cemetery in Noble County is listed "North of Summerfield on State Route 5-A" — State Route 5 is in the northeastern corner of the state (Noble County being in the southeastern part of the state), and I can't find evidence for a separate 5A. Google Maps places it along a County Road 5A. Nyttend (talk) 15:00, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Suggest change "State Route 5-A" to "County Road 5A"
Suggest checking NRHP nomination document and also maps, and then making some determination, probably to "Graces Road"
batch07:52
Christ Church At The Quarry near Gambier (Knox County) is listed at the intersection of State Routes 233 and 235. I don't know if there's a State Route 233, but State Route 235 is on the other side of the state. Google Maps shows the roads to be Quarry Chapel and Monroe Mills Rds.

Suggest checking NRHP nomination document and also maps, and then making some determination.
Suggest checking NRHP nomination document and also maps, and then making some determination, perhaps chaning from State Route 393 to State Route 339
batch07:54
The West Orange Road-Thomas Bridge near Powell (Delaware County) is listed at "OH 114, E of jct. with OH 315". Delaware County is in central Ohio, but State Route 114 is in Putnam County, four counties away in northwestern Ohio. Detailed road atlas shows this location to be Orange Road and nothing more.

Suggest checking NRHP nomination document and also maps, and then making some determination, perhaps changing to "Orange Road"
Botkins Elementary SchoolinShelby County: coords place it in a parking lot, and locals told me that it had been torn down and replaced by this parking lot. It's listed along Main St., but there is no school along Main, and the school one block away is clearly far newer than the listed structure. Nyttend (talk) 19:39, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
