The Odd Fellows' Cemetery Mound is a Native American mound in the southwestern part of the U.S. state of Ohio. Located in the village of Newtown in Hamilton County, the mound is an oval approximately 110 feet (34 m) long and 90 feet (27 m) wide; its height is 11.3 feet (3.4 m).: 641  It is believed to have been built by the Adena culture.The mound is one of the few remnants of what was once a large complex of prehistoric earthworks and other archaeological sites.: 641  While multiple village sites are still in existence around Newtown, including the Perin Village Site just 0.3 miles (0.5 km) to the northwest,: 646  many of the earthworks have been destroyed. Because of its location in a cemetery, the Odd Fellows' Cemetery Mound has been spared destruction; although a few graves have been dug around the mound, there has been no significant damage done as a result. A smaller mound, known as the "Odd Fellows' Cemetery Mound 2," is located within the same cemetery; it is only a small fraction of the larger mound's size. This mound has been damaged by the digging of six graves into its side; however, no artifacts are known to have been found during the interment process.: 641 For many years, the Odd Fellows' Cemetery Mound has been a landmark in the community. In 1943, a survey of Newtown performed by the Federal Writers' Project highlighted it and noted that it was "the only mound distinctly visible" in the vicinity of the village. Thirty years later, the mound was listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its potential to become an archaeological site. Four years later, the nearby Perin Village Site was granted a similar status.

The Harrison–Landers House was a historic Federal-style residence near the village of Newtown in Hamilton County, Ohio, United States. Built in the first quarter of the 19th century, it served a range of residential and commercial purposes throughout its obscure history, but enough of its history was known to permit its designation as a historic site in the 1970s. The house was built by a Mr. P. Harrison in the early 19th century, seemingly between 1815 and 1825, using the then-popular Federal style of architecture. Executed in brick, the design included standard Federal elements such as the chimneys atop the gabled ends of the house and a fanlight at the entrance. Additional exterior components included brick lintels for the windows and a brick archway surrounding the main entrance. In its earlier years, the house possessed rich fireplace mantels and cupboards, but surveyors from the Historic American Buildings Survey in the 1930s noted that they had been removed by an owner who had no interest in the house's history. Mr. Harrison was related by marriage to a prominent citizen of early Newtown, the miller Nathaniel Armstrong. Members of Armstrong's family later owned a carding mill in Newtown, and years after Harrison's residence at the house, it was known as the "Armstrong Mill". Comparatively little is known about its historic uses (the 1930s surveyors noted that the only sources of information were the current owner and one other local resident), although it appears to have been used for commercial purposes: located on the road from Newtown to Plainville, it was employed as a saloon and tavern, primarily by farmers taking their animals to market. By the late twentieth century, it had been converted into a boarding house.In 1975, the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places under the name of "Harrison–Landers House", deriving the latter half of its name from the family that occupied it in the 1930s. It qualified for designation because of its historically significant architecture, which closely resembled that of the James Whallon House in Greenhills to the northwest. Historic designation has not been enough to preserve the house, which has been demolished.

The Martin House is a historic residence in the Mount Washington neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built in 1847, the house is composed of two pieces: the original section, located in the back; and the front, built in 1852. Between the two components, it features elements of the Greek Revival and Federal architectural styles. Built of brick, two stories tall, it was originally a farmhouse belonging to John C. Martin, who built his home on property owned by his father-in-law Ezekiel Rigdon, who owned nearly 100 acres (40 ha) of land on Mount Washington near the farm of one of the area's first settlers.In 1979, the Martin House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, because of its status as a well-preserved example of the area's architecture. By this point, the house was owned by a religious organization and was also known as the "Heritage House;" it received national recognition because it had almost never been altered after the construction of the front component, and few other houses in the area built at a similar time retained so many of their original components.

The Perin Village Site is an archaeological site in the southwestern part of the U.S. state of Ohio. Located in Newtown in Hamilton County, it is believed to have been inhabited by peoples of the Hopewell tradition.: 647 Perin Village is part of a prehistoric complex of earthworks in the Newtown vicinity; other sites in the complex include the Odd Fellows' Cemetery Mound, approximately 0.3 miles (0.48 km) to the southeast,: 646  and the large Turner Earthworks. A mound was once located at the site; when it was destroyed for the purpose of improving a roadway in the late 1870s, it yielded many bones and pieces of charcoal. Two portions of the village site are especially rich in artifacts;: 647  however, the site, 80 acres (32 ha) in total, has a less dense concentration of surface artifacts than many other sites in the region due to its location near the Little Miami River — many floods during the site's history have covered earlier artifacts with layers of silt. It is believed that a detailed excavation of Perin Village would yield evidence of houses, hearths, middens, and burial sites. A small number of "Hopewell-like" artifacts were once removed from the site by local resident Frederick Starr; his collection is now housed at the Cincinnati Museum of Natural History and Science.: 647 The archaeological value of the Perin Village Site led to its placement on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977, four years after a similar status was accorded to the Odd Fellows' Cemetery Mound.

Armstrong Chapel United Methodist Church is a historic church in the city of Indian Hill, Ohio, United States. Built in 1831, it is a small rectangular building with a prominent front tower. It was designated a historic site in 1975.Nathanial and Hannah Armstrong, formerly residents of Virginia, arrived in southwestern Ohio in 1800; they soon built a log cabin and gristmill on their land and began farming. By this time, occasional circuit-riding ministers of the Methodist Church were visiting the area, but the settlers worshipped in each others' homes because there were no church buildings nearby. As this situation continued for decades, in 1830 Armstrong donated one of the best pieces of his land for the construction of a church and cemetery.The church was erected in the summer of 1831 under the leadership of Samuel Earhart; its walls, built of brick, were constructed from locally made bricks whose clay originated on Earhart's property. The adjacent cemetery had already been founded; its first burial was Hannah Armstrong, who had died four years before the church's completion in the fall of 1831. Nathanial Armstrong provided that the church be made available for the use of whichever denomination had the greatest number of members in the vicinity. Both at that time and at all times since, the church has been used by Methodists. Relatively few changes have been made to the building since its construction; a tower was added in 1890, but only minor repairs have been carried out otherwise. Although the foundation was built of fieldstones and held together by soil rather than mortar, it has moved only slightly; a restoration performed in the 1970s demonstrated that the building had settled just 2 inches (51 mm) in 140 years.In late 1975, Armstrong Chapel was listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the name of "United Methodist Church." It is one of five sites in Indian Hill that is listed on the National Register, along with the Elliott House, the Jefferson Schoolhouse, the Gordon E. Pape House, and the Washington Heights School. Armstrong qualified for inclusion on the Register because of its place in local history, because of its connection to locally prominent individual Nathanial Armstrong, and because of its well-preserved historic architecture. The historic site designation encompassed the Armstrong cemetery, as well as the church building. Today, Armstrong Chapel continues as an active congregation of the United Methodist Church. As the congregation grew in the early twenty-first century, a new building was deemed necessary; a groundbreaking ceremony was held at the end of August 2009, and the new structure was substantially completed in October of the following year.
