1918–1933; 1970s – present
Neither Prohibition nor the modern drug trade left a named North Liberty case in the record reached. For the dry years, the searches run — the digitised Walkerton and South Bend press carried on Hoosier State Chronicles, the county histories, and the banked legs of this build — return no raid, seizure, speakeasy prosecution or liquor-resale scandal sited in North Liberty or Liberty Township. That is a finding about the record reached, not about conduct in the township; the settling sources are the St. Joseph County court dockets for 1918–1933 and the federal prohibition-enforcement files for the Northern District of Indiana. For the drug era, no federal indictment, appellate opinion or U.S. Attorney release naming a North Liberty defendant or a Liberty Township premises was found in the sources reached. Both negatives print whole because the checklist requires the tests, and a small farm town's silence in these two national records is itself part of its history.
