Tested
Three of the floor's tests print at their results. Church music: the township's congregations (dug whole in the religion section) carry the ordinary record of small-church music, and the Potato Creek baptisms of the late 1800s and early 1900s (DNR brochure) imply congregational singing at the creek, but no organ builder, choir founding or church-music figure at North Liberty was found in sources read — no Van Dinter figure built instruments here, and none is claimed. The singing-society test: no German singing society, ethnic chorus or immigrant club band was found for this Pennsylvania-German township in any source read, despite the settlement stock that elsewhere in the county sustained exactly those institutions; printed as a searched negative, settler the South Bend Tribune's society columns and the township church records. The famous-name test: no documented concert by a famous visiting performer at North Liberty was found — the town had no venue that drew the road, and its famous performances, if any, happened at the school and church scale and did not reach print in sources read.
