Eight grounds read against the test
No famous grave stands in Lakeville or Union Township, and no grave here was ever moved for fame — the test is run ground by ground so the negative is a finding, not an omission. The cemeteries file works eight grounds: Lakeville Cemetery, Olive Branch, Mount Calvary, Porter-Rea, Lamb's Settlement (Union Cemetery), Dice, County Line / Mount Zion, and the dead of 1833–1845 before the grounds. Its rolls are soldiers, settlers, families and the township's Black settlement dead — people of record, several of them dug to full profile strength in this build — but no person of national fame is buried in any of them in any carrier reached, and no burial in the file was exhumed, moved, or re-sited because the dead person became famous. The county's famous-grave story stands where the floor's pattern puts it, at boundary size in South Bend: Knute Rockne's grave at Notre Dame — the famous grave that was itself moved, from Highland Cemetery to Cedar Grove on the campus in 2024's telling of the county record — is South Bend's and Notre Dame's, and is claimed here only as the comparison that proves the test was understood. Lakeville's graves hold their fame the other way: the Huggart and Porter-Rea dead are famous, so far as they are, because the ground kept them, not because the world came to the grave. That is this item's true size, printed whole.
