The scholarship stock: what the journals hold on this ground — ice, water, traders, and one road

1957–2024 · the periodical literature actually used in this build, gathered

The character of the stock, stated first: Granger has no journal, no university press series, and no scholarly literature of itself. What it has is a borrowed shelf: the peer-reviewed and periodical work that happens to cover its ground because the ground sits on a glacial lobe, a creek, a river trade route and a land-cession road. That shelf, as actually used in this build, is short enough to print whole — and printing it whole is the finding, because every other leg's authority quietly rests on these few items.

The land's scholarship: The ground's deepest literature is geological. Antinao and Rupp's "Quaternary Geology of the Indiana Portion of the Eastern —" (Indiana Journal of Earth Sciences, 2024) supplies the updated stratigraphic framework the Land leg builds on — the Baugo Creek, Newbury and Lagrange members and the optically stimulated luminescence ages (about 25.8 and 25.3 thousand years) that date this ground's ice margin; it works alongside Bleuer & Melhorn (1989) and Kincare (2010) on the aquifer and Quaternary mapping, cited at pointer strength in the same leg. The creek gets the second shelf: Shirey and others (2016), the Juday Creek study in Ecology and Society, and Ron Hellenthal's "Studies on Juday Creek 1978–," presented to the St. Joseph River Basin Commission's symposium of 10 May 2019 — the record of a Notre Dame biologist's four decades on the one named stream that crosses the ground. The Shirey study carries one of the build's preserved conflicts: its drainage figure of 98 km² (about 24,216 acres) stands against the 14,700 acres of the Tribune and Notre Dame ECI accounts, and both stand in the Land leg unmerged — the scholarship does not outrank the local record here; it disagrees with it, in print.

The history journals: For the human period the stock is the Indiana Magazine of History and one Bureau monograph. Anson's trader study in that journal — the study of the St. Joseph River trade this build's Before the City leg works from — dates Alexis Coquillard's post to 1824, against the History Museum's 1823; the conflict is preserved in that leg, and it is the kind of half-decade on which the scholarship and the museum record simply differ. "The Indians and the Michigan Road" (Indiana Magazine of History, 1987) carries the cession-and-road scholarship behind the Michigan Road selections that cross the frame's townships. Emma Lou Thornbrough's The Negro in Indiana (Indiana Historical Bureau, 1957) is the scholarly spine of the Underground Railroad branch — the monograph the branch's addendum names twice as settler, for the county's 1851 referendum count and its colonization answer. Around these stand the near-scholarship the build uses at its own strength: the Miles centennial history in the Historical Society's Traces of Indiana and Midwestern History, and the county histories themselves, which are 1880 and 1907 commercial publications and are graded as such in the banked bibliography. That is the whole shelf: two journals, one earth-sciences annual, one symposium series, one Bureau monograph. A suburb written about by geologists and stream ecologists, and otherwise by its county's historians — printed at that size because the size is the fact.
