Howard (1907), Vol. 2
Howard's biographical volume has no Liberty Township section; its Liberty lives are scattered, with a concentrated cluster at printed pp. 1003–1032 and further entries at Parts 33, 44, and 68. The cluster is heavily a Sheneman / Geyer / Houser / Kane / McEnderfer kin-web — a family-web coverage, not a town-officers coverage. For the first-town-board question (gap G-GV-8) Howard Vol. 2 does not settle it: what it yields for officers is incidental and later — Israel Irvin, "first village treasurer of North Liberty" (no year); Del M. Woodward, justice of the peace 1898 and board of education 1906; Charles Earley, township trustee at the time of writing; Rev. Isaac Early, county commissioner for three years, years not given. The earliest town-board president reached in any record is L. W. Pommert, in 1912 (the Nomination). G-GV-8 stands open; its settler remains the town's first minute book. The thirty entries follow at the register's strength.
