Indiana Archives and Records Administration, G.A.R. finding aid, Vol. II, Appendix B, at the strength the sibling pass established; Howard (1907) I, pp. 736–742
The Grand Army whole, at county frame: the state archive's finding aid lists seven distinct posts for St. Joseph County, seated in the county's cities and towns of that era — South Bend's Auten Post No. 8 the one this build's record touches directly, its 1903–04 roster (Howard, pp. 736–742) carrying the township's own Samuel Jennings of the 21st Indiana Battery among its living members, as the wars file states. No post was ever seated in Clay Township's farm country, and none could have been seated in this town, which did not stand as a town in the Grand Army's era on any record reached. One post of the county frame stands on the township's southern edge and prints at its own place: Post No. 569, seated at Notre Dame, composed, Howard says, exclusively of chaplains and members of a religious society — a post of the university's religious, not of the township's farmers, and the wars file's pointer to it stands. The Grand Army is the first of this section's frames: the county organized its memory in its cities, and the township's veterans walked into those posts; no carrier gives this town a post, a camp, or a post hall of its own, in the Grand Army's era or since.
