Can this book, that is if you know, be purchased, and if so where? My great grandmother died at Central State in 1889 and I do have her hospital records, stating she was buried "on the grounds" BUT there is no other record there and I have never been able to find anywhere she may be buried. It's been a good 20 years since I have had the file out, but am curious nevertheless. Would love to find her final resting area and get a marker for her. Thank you for any help you might be able to give me.

Antoinette, I purchased the book at a gen conference earlier this year. It was $10. To order a copy contact the Indiana Medical History Museum (what was once the Central State Hospital) at 317-635-l7329.
