Indiana State Library county directory list (index); Polk runs as stated
The honest state of the directory evidence is thin, and this article is its ledger. Read first-hand: the Polk Indiana Gazetteer of 1916–17 (no Roseland entry, printed above), and the 20 May 1955 issue of The Colonial, which serves the town as an advertising bench for that year. Located only, at index strength: Hibbard's St. No directory publisher's list for the town itself exists in the state library's county list. The consequence is structural, and the gaps file carries it: Roseland's business record between 1928 and 1955, and again between 1955 and the modern listing era, rests on trade press, the town code's recollections, and single documents — not on the yearly directory canvass a larger place would have. Where this section states a negative, the span searched is stated with it.
