AUDIT ROW #379 · THE NPS-COMPLETE COUNTY LIST, READ WHOLE THIS PASS · AS OF NOVEMBER 2026

Counted, as the checklist orders: St. Joseph County holds 102 properties and districts on the National Register of Historic Places — including one National Historic Landmark — and Walkerton holds none. The county figure is from the National Park Service's complete county list as it stands through September 18, 2026, read whole; four former county listings have been removed over the years and are not in the 102. Against that list, the town's count is a clean zero: no Walkerton property and no Walkerton district appears on it, at any date, in any state of listing. The sister towns show what the zero means by contrast, at boundary size: New Carlisle has its historic district (listed December 14, 1992) and North Liberty has its own (listed 201x) — comparable towns, in the same county, with designated fabric; Walkerton, with a cut-glass works, an 1877 incorporation, and buildings of the same ages, has never been listed. The local side of the ledger matches the federal: no local landmark or district designation for the town stands in the records reached (the law article below). And one standing error is flagged here rather than folded: the historical society's museum address prints as 305 in the society's own page (carried in Arts, the open GAP-W-ART-5) against 302

Assembly note on this count: the zero it returns for Walkerton does not survive this build's own Architecture section, which carries the Walkerton Historic District's nomination record whole — listed 17 November 2021, reference 100007175. The district stands on that record; this count's Walkerton line is the miss.
