Notes
Park Species Detail: Hamilton, 2006: In DeHaven, 1985, the typescript states: "the chestnut tree #17? Need minor sanitation to remove stubs & damaged branches"; handwriting adds "Horse" before chestnut and "oak" between chestnut and tree, and changes the illegible typescript #17? To #178. It is questionable as to whether this tree is Quercus prinus or Aesculus hippocantanum./Yahner, 2002: See Appendices E, F, G, H for abundance percentages of herbaceous plants, saplings and shrubs, woody seedlings and overstory trees in 20 plots 5x5m, 2x2m, 10x10m, and 20x20m sampled./Engelhardt, 2005: Found 4 times in 78 inventoried plots./, Park Species Data Source: Yahner, 2002-Entire Park ; DeHaven, 1985;Engelhardt, 2005-Entire Park; MD Heritage, 1997-Snavely Ford Woods;
