Marking, counted both ways: the state's instrument named, the town's marker read whole

AUDIT ROW #382 · IHB DATABASE AS THE COUNTY INSTRUMENT · POST 189'S MARKER STANDS READ

The checklist counts marking two ways — the state's markers and the town's own — and the two counts stand in different states, printed separately. The state side: the Indiana Historical Bureau's marker database is the counting instrument for the county's state markers, and it was not pulled whole from this seat; the county count under that instrument is therefore a named gap with the instrument stated, not a figure. Urey is Post 189's own marker (at Roosevelt Road and Illinois Street), not an Indiana state historical marker — Arts's "an Indiana state historical marker" phrasing in Awards & Honors stands superseded by the W-11 addendum and is flagged for assembly's conform — while the state's own Urey marker was dedicated on May 9, 2026, at Corunna, in DeKalb County. The town's own marking beyond the post's marker — a town marker programme, a walking tour, a plaque series — was tested and none stands in the records reached: one marker, privately raised by a veterans' post, is the town's whole marking census as documented.
