ROW #665 · THE ADDITION-ERA CORE
Bole's. Bole's 1st carries about 32 parcels, its wider family near 40 — the second-largest plat family in the town after Moran. Founding plat, subdivider, street plan: the parcel record gives the name in its possessive form — a proprietor's plat — and no date; the family-of-plats shape (a 1st with later Bole's ground around it) prints as found. Character: addition-era residential ground at family scale. Present state: about 40 parcels across the family, alive. Settler: Recorder's plat books, Bole's 1st and its successor sheets.
Long's. Long's 1st, 28 parcels, its family near 30. Same instrument strength, same honesty: a proprietor-named first addition with a small family tail, no founding date in the parcel record, character the same railroad-and-after residential core as its neighbours. Present state: about 30 parcels. Settler: Recorder's plat books, Long's 1st sheet. No Long of the plat is identified with any Long of the People leg on a surname — this build does not merge people on names, in plats any more than in stations.
The Barnes family. About 30 parcels across three plat forms — Barnes 1st, Barnes 2nd, and the Barnes Addition to Osceola — the only family in this section whose third form names the town itself in its title, an addition to Osceola in so many words. Its descriptions carry Garfield as a street name (the banked leg: Garfield in the Barnes descriptions) — a presidential street name of the addition era, printed as a description fact, not dated by inference from the presidency. Present state: about 30 parcels across the three forms. Settler: Recorder's plat books, the three Barnes sheets, which will also settle whether the three forms are one proprietor's sequence or a name reused.
