Page 1 - Bible Grove Township - This township is situated in the northeast corner of Clay County. It's name was derived from the fact that a Bible was found by hunters in a grove near where Georgetown stood. Bible Grove is at town 5 north, range 7 east and lies between Effingham County on the north, and Hoosier Township on the south. On the east the boundary is Pixley Township and Jasper County and the west by Blair Township. In the northeast corner, running through Section 1 & 12 is Limestone Branch, on the banks of which John Pulliam settled in the early days. 

Cottonwood Creek rises in Section 12, flows south and leaves the township in Section 36. It is fed in many tributaries arising in Little Prairie which lies west of it. Little Muddy Creek rises in Effingham County and enters the township in Section 33.

Page 241 - The Flora Journal-Record 1920s - The Flora Building Boom, more than 100 new houses two years. Record since securing international shoe factory. Milestones in the life of a town or city occur similar to those in the individual lives of the people. The Flora of a quarter century age is so unlike the city of today as to cause comment from those who knew the "old town" in its earlier period.

We have taken the time and effort to collect some statistics on material growth of Flora and find that most of the excellent modern buildings are creatures since 1903. 

From 1903 to 1922 we have listed the following new business or other buildings:

• Carnegie Library 1903
• Ebner Ice & Cold Storage 1903
• City Hall 1904
• Two ward school buildings 1906
• High school 1912
• M.E. Church 1914
• B&O station 1916-17
