GAP-W7-R1: the St. Patrick church-building date — 1870 in the parish's own telling, 1876 in Chapman and Howard — settler, the diocesan or parish building record. GAP-W7-R2: the year of the St. Henry-to-St. Patrick name change, stated in every source reached only as "before the end of the 19th century" — settler, the diocesan parish file. GAP-W7-R3: the United Brethren congregation's after-course — whether it merged into the Methodist congregation in 1968 — settlers, the Indiana Conference journals, the congregation's own records line at SJCPL, and the Community Church's archive. GAP-W7-R4: the current pastors of Walkerton Community Church, First Presbyterian Church, and Walkerton Bible Baptist Church, none found in any source reached — settlers, the congregations themselves and the Indiana Conference and presbytery directories. GAP-W7-R5: the identity of the 200 Maine Street Baptist congregation (Antioch Baptist vs. First Baptist in conflicting aggregator records) and the seat's exact containment, its number returning no geocoder match — settlers, the congregation's own publication and a parcel-level check. GAP-W7-R6: the Grace Reformed pastorate (Barker in the presbytery directory; vacant in March 2024; Spalti preaching in 2025–26) — settler, the Presbytery of the Midwest's current stated-clerk record. GAP-W7-R7: the Wesleyan church's after-course past 1990 and the Adventist church's closing — settlers, the Wesleyan Church district records and the Indiana Conference of Seventh-day Adventists' church-history file. GAP-W7-R8: the Methodist congregation's own twentieth-century name course (M.E. to Methodist to United Methodist at Walkerton specifically) — settler, the congregation's archive and conference appointment records. Three negatives stand tested and are printed as findings, not gaps: no congregation-held churchyard exists at Walkerton at any strength reached (Cemeteries leg); no Lutheran congregation was found in town or township, the 1965 league chapter being the whole Lutheran trace; and the "First Baptist Church" of 407 Elm Street is North Liberty's, excluded so it is not imported by a later pass.
