Can anyone tell me what funeral homes were in Perry Township (Huntertown) or near Leo in Cedar Creek Township? Also, my great-grandfather, EMANUEL A. MYERS, died in a tuberculosis hospital in Fort Wayne (Lawton Nursing Home?) on December 3, 1952, and is apparently buried in Allen County Cemetery off Carroll Road west of Lima Road. Can anyone tell me how to find out more about his burial? Sloan Funeral Home handled the arrangements. I would like to find out if there was a funeral. The obit from the newspaper is of no use. I strongly suspect that the Edward A. Myers, d. 1952, buried in Huntertown Cemetery in Perry Township (where my Myers' ancestors lived) might really be Emanuel A. Myers. I need to try and get more information on this. Thanks for any help you can give me, Karen

Karen, Usually the death certificate has the undertaker on it as well as the final resting place. I have a 1945 Indiana Death certificate and in the lower left corner is information on burial & Funeral Director.
