The source that is least likely to be reliable is a journal entry written by someone at the time of the founding who wanted to be annexed into a different city instead of creating a new one. This source may be biased, as the author has a personal stake in the outcome of the city's founding. Their perspective could distort the factual accuracy of events and motivations surrounding the city's establishment. The other sources are likely to provide a broader range of perspectives and information regarding the founding of the city.
