Written reading complete. Original HTML is preserved in the Wikipedia package linked from the Source record. Remote images, remaining primary corroboration and page-presentation checks remain open. This is not a fully processed source.

Source argument

Site, ownership, production and tourism history are combined with modern brand and disaster coverage.

Evidence map

LINK-204, revision 1372759552: full numbered extraction lines 1–96 reviewed, including written reference entries and any tables. These locators identify the reviewed snapshot, not the underlying cited publications.

1805 infobox, 1812 building and 1775 activity are distinct. OFC has conflicting expansions. Oldest continuous operation is a company claim, not proved by a medicinal permit. Verify 1886 steam heating and 1873/1882 archaeology. The 2025 flood's 48.24 feet is gauge height, not campus water depth. A 60,000-gallon still figure needs feed/product/time units. Brand ownership does not establish onsite production of every listed product.

No unverified direct quotations promoted. Detailed local critical checkpoint retained alongside the numbered reading file.

Researcher synthesis

Separate site continuity, operating continuity, brand launch and historic designation. National Register and university oral histories offer corroboration leads.

Assessment

Tertiary discovery evidence only. Preserve contradictory and time-dependent claims as open checks, not resolved facts. Images, native preservation and presentation pending. Source-reading completeness does not prove factual accuracy; no History/profile/trial changes.

Completion checklist

One canonical Source related.
Full written reading and critical assessment recorded.
Author argument and researcher synthesis separated.
Consequential claims supported by checked original sources.
Images and native preservation complete.
Durable claims ready for promotion.
Presentation settings verified.
