Indiana State Library atlas and plat-book catalog, read; the Library of Congress record for the Stokes map; the 1875 text layer executed in Pass IV-2
The 1875 Higgins, Belden atlas is the shelf's one executed atlas — in text. Its text layer was run whole in IV-2: the Clay early-settler footnote (which names twelve sections and not the town's 25) and the Clay directory of p. 91, transcribed name by name (no patron of section 25). Its Clay map plate, p. 62, is a graphic outside the text layer and is unread — it stands at the head of the pull list, and the directory was never, and must never be, substituted for the plate. The plat-book succession catalogues whole: Ogle's Standard Atlas of 1911, the first plat-book-class carrier after 1875 that could show the section's ownership into the town's century; Hixson's plat books, whose dates are the catalog's brackets — "[1920]," "[1900?]" — the catalog itself warning that the books contain no publication dates; and Sidwell's, bracketed [1925–1941], spanning the very decades in which the town's ground took residential form. None of the three is read for this town yet; bracketed dates print as brackets wherever they are cited (trap T-12). The Stokes county map closes the article with its pair: the Library of Congress record carries the sheet as published 1863 — entered according to Act of Congress in 1863, engraved by Chas. Shober — and a citation form and Dates field of 1866, both inside one record (the sibling build's conflict C16). This build cites it as the record gives it, never as a bare year; the settler is the sheet's own imprint, unread first-hand, on the pull list with its image row.
