Every Named Area, Whole at Its Size

Downtown, the shores, the north side, the prairie, the corridor

"Downtown" is one street, and the record says so by never naming another. Chapman's 1880 village — two good country stores, a drug and hardware store, a hotel, shoe-shops, blacksmith shops, saw- and grist-mills, two churches, a school, three physicians, "about the center of the township" — stood on the Michigan Road; the modern row is the same street as SR 931: town hall on S. Michigan (its 105 vs. 118 address conflict whole in the government file), the library at 120 N. Michigan, the Palmer Community Complex at 601 N. Michigan, Hoosier's address of record on SR 931. The lakes shore: Riddles Lake (77 acres, agreed) and Pleasant Lake (29 acres IDNR against 27 Lake-Link — conflict C48, whole) — the seasonal-colony test prints negative: a 1979 lakefront house marketed as a getaway evidences modern lakefront houses, not a historic cottage colony, and no named colony, lake hotel, or seasonal settlement on either shore was found in any carrier; the shore prints as farm margin turned scattered lakefront, nothing grander. The north side is three anchors and the road between them: Faith Christian Chapel (20876 Pierce Road, classed north-edge), Lakeville Cemetery about a mile north on SR 931, and the Sacred Heart / Mount Calvary ground further north in the township class. Sumption Prairie is a named rural district without a surveyed boundary: its Baptist church stood three miles northwest of the Huggart farm, its cemetery remnants on the Downhour farm (63068 Pine Road), and Chapman lists "Sumption" among the county's celebrated prairies — carriers place pieces of the story across the Greene/Union line and the attribution is kept exactly as each gives it (its extent a named gap). Lamb's Settlement rides at pointer with its boundary kept: its cemetery (also carried as Union Cemetery; aliases Union, Carson, Mennonite, Shively) at 66521 Miami Road on the township's northeast side — it is not the Huggart Settlement of Section 29, and no carrier asserts a connection to Esau Lamb (c. 1836); the two are not merged. The SR 931 corridor is the corridors file's whole: 27,000 vehicles a day before the bypass, 5,400 after it opened 27 August 2014, the freeway a mile east with Exit 239 at SR 4; its modern strip at firm-name strength is the auto trade of the machines article. And the school district is a lived boundary, at pointer to the schools file: organised 1 July 1962 across the county line, renamed LaVille Community Schools 8 June 2026 — the town's children cross a county line on Tyler Road to reach their elementary school (conflict C12, settled there).
