The Mishawaka Historical Museum (opened 2023) and the Hannah Lindahl Children's Museum (permanently closed; collections' home unstated)
What it is: two museum collections stand in this build's record in opposite states. The Mishawaka Historical Museum (mishawakamuseum.org read first-hand; a 501(c)(3) approved 13 December 2016; Pete De Kever its president and curator) opened 12 March 2023 — the date carried on a single-source alumni newsletter and flagged for assembly — and its book list is, as Part one notes, the sole carrier of one bibliographic fact in the whole build. The Hannah Lindahl Children's Museum was an archive wearing a museum's name: a school museum holding the school records of 1887–1914, a class-of-1920 photographs-and-addresses record kept through 1960, a Red Ball run of 1947–1965, the 1911 map and the 1942 county atlas (the county genealogical society's account and its Clio entry, no. 22458, both read).
Its standing, from this build's experience: the Lindahl museum's present state is a source-loss finding, and the Photographers and Museums legs print it as one: its Google listing in November 2026 reads "Permanently Closed," its site is dead, and the present home of its collections is stated in no record reached. The settling addresses are named — the School City of Mishawaka; the public library's Heritage Room.
Where it fails: an archive whose disposition is unrecorded fails the next build exactly as it failed this one: the class-of-1920 record and the Red Ball run are known to have existed and are not known to survive anywhere reachable. The finding stands in print so that the loss is at least on the record.
