Have you tried the Minnesota Historical Society to see if they can find an obit for you. I had requested one......very old....grin. For $15 they not only sent me the obit but the death notice and also an article that was on the front page regarding the death. Don't know if Indiana has something like that but you might check that out also. Another avenue is contacting the Cemetery. Sometimes they have copies of the obit on file or at least the date and paper in which it was published. From there you can work with a library to see if they can help. Most libraries charge a minimal amount for finding them. Here's the URL for the Minnesota Historical Society. Hope this helps, Gretchen http://www.mnhs.org/index.htm
