The claims record's index of failures
1. John Rupel "first settler in Liberty tp." (Chapman sketch, p. 730) — fails against Chapman's own 1833 narrative. 2. The 2015 Comprehensive Plan's "Historic National Landmarks" (and its "7000211") — fails against the NRIS record. 3. "Potato Creek State Park is in North Liberty" as a town claim — fails; township, not town. 4. Potato Creek named from the word "Potawatomi" (travel-guide carrier) — fails; unsupported folk etymology. 5. An independent Community State Bank "since 1943" — the date is true, the independence fails at 1 April 1987. Kept distinct, by design: the Waldsmith gristmill-builder claim is unproven, not failed, and does not belong on this list; David Rupel's "second permanent settler" is unresolved as printed, not failed; and the Potato Creek tuber etymology is a legend, printed as legend — a different category from a failed claim, and kept in it.
