Fox Islands corpus record: Charlevoix County Herald, 1923-06-08

Summary

The audit matched the name South Fox island in a page of the Charlevoix County Herald, dated 8 June 1923. It kept the body as a local mention because the mention names South Fox by direction rather than a bare Fox Island. What follows is the indexed context. The page holds more.

Scope and limits

A mention is not an event. Where a held source supports one, a curated article under event/ carries the claim and this record is only its evidence. Deduplication here suppresses byte-identical bodies alone, so a second OCR edition of the same page is still a second record. The name is not unique to Michigan either, which is why the audit tests for a local cue at all. Read the cited source before you cite it.
