Artists — a Tested Negative
No artist is tied to this town in the record reached
Exact-phrase and general fame searches run, at search strength.
The searches that found the town's officers and its settlers found no artist. Neither the exact-phrase route ("born in Indian Village, Indiana") nor the general fame searches returned a painter, writer, musician or other artist tied to the Town of Indian Village's ground; the artists of the region who did surface belong to South Bend and Notre Dame, whose ground is not this town's, and they are not entered. No artists' register comparable to the sports birthplace registers exists to certify the negative beyond search strength, and it is printed at exactly that strength: no artist of record for this town was located, and the leg closes on the negative rather than on a borrowed name.
