The centennial line — the birthdays the record does not show

Tested for 1933, 1936–37, and 1994 — not shown

No celebration of any of the town's three birthdays is in the reached record — not the settlement centennial of 1933, not the plat centennials of 1936–37, not the incorporation centennial of 1994. The test has now run three times across this build's passes and returns, every time, only Joan Alt Belknap's Sesquicentennial History of North Liberty, Iowa (1996) — a different town, excluded by name. The Indiana State Library's St. Joseph County holdings guide, read whole, carries no North Liberty town history of any kind. The birthdays print as not-shown, not as events that did not happen; their settlers are the town paper's runs for those years and the town minute books. The one centennial the town's paper did carry was institutional, not civic: "Masons Observe Centennial," North Liberty News, 26 May 1960 — the lodge's hundredth year, carried whole in the associations file.
