THE NAMED GAPS, WITH THEIR SETTLERS
Three cells of the town series and two of the township's ride below first-hand strength, and this article names them rather than letting the tables imply otherwise. The town's 1880 (754), 1890 (885), and 1960 (2,044) counts are carried on the Story of Walkerton section's citation of the published decennial tables, under this section's owed volume verification. The instruments attempted are stated so the gap is a record, not an excuse: the 1880 volume's chapter files on the Bureau's site carry a text layer too sparse to search; the one Internet Archive copy of the Tenth Census's first volume is a lending-restricted scan whose text would not download; the 1930 volume's comparative chapters, downloaded whole, carry no text layer at all in their scans; and the 1960 Indiana part was not located in the Bureau's tree. The settlers are exact: the Tenth Census, Vol. I (1880), table of population of civil divisions and its incorporated-places list; the Eleventh Census publications and the 1900 Census, Vol. I, Table 5 (places in 1900 and 1890) for the 1890 cell; and the 1960 Census, Vol. I, pt. 16 (Indiana), places table, for 1960 — with NHGIS's place-level series as the cross-check for all three. The township's 1870 and 1880 counts are the second gap: the settlers are the Ninth and Tenth Census volumes' civil-division tables for Indiana, in a readable copy. Nothing else in this section is carried below the strength its article states: the remaining town cells were read in the volumes and files themselves, the township compilation was verified on nine overlapping cells plus two, and the estimates are quarantined in their own article. A count not yet verified is a named debt; this section leaves three, with the volumes that will pay them.
