Sharon, Thanks for writing and for your information. I have seen the book at our library but the deaths within were too late for my friend's ancestor.

Rich, So the cemetery on the northwestern part of the grounds is no longer marked. Just my luck, eh? That might make me go to inquest records and commitment records. From the Central State Hospital Cemetery List it stated the cemeteries in Section 2,3, and 4 which began in 1905 were located as per your directions below. Do you have a copy of the early Indianapolis map in which the cemetery in the northwest corner was identified? Would there be a chance of getting me a copy? If so, I will send you my snail mail.

Thanks for the information. I was at our library and they had a copy of the book you mentioned. However, the deaths listed were too late for my friends ancestor.

As for the location, here's what IGS has published: CENTRAL STATE HOSPITAL S4 T15N R3E The former hospital is at 300 N. Tibbs Ave. There are two separate cemeteries on the grounds of the old Indiana Central State Hospital. One is at Tibbs Ave. and Vermont St. From I-465, go east on Washington St., and north on Tibbs Ave. From I-70, go north on Holt Rd., east on Washington Ave., and north on Tibbs. There is a museum of the grounds of the old hospital. They may have more information. There is a book on the burials at Central State Hospital. Sharon Howell

Natalie, I located some of my photos from the Central State property. I do have images of at least one side of the memorial wall that are legible and I'll be glad to send them along to you if you like. Also, my recollection of the grave markers themselves was off a bit. These are small rectangular concrete markers buried flush with the red numbered tag affixed. I found a photo of one of these as well. I believe there were a few stone markers just north of this area that seemed to be related to this cemetery, but there weren't many. Let me know off list if you'd like me to e-mail the photos.

Hi Natalie, We cooperated in research at the Insane Asylum several years ago. There is a memorial cemetery of sorts that has plastic numbered grave markers (small plaques- no headstones) and a wall that identifies some of the marked graves. It is located outside the western fence of the Central State property on the west side of Tibbs Avenue, just south of Mount Jackson cemetery. This is probably not where all of the patients were actually buried though; in my opinion it appears to be more of a memorial site than an actual burial grounds. We know that another cemetery existed in the northwest corner of the Central State property (east side of Tibbs Avenue at Vermont Street). This one is no longer marked in any way; although it did show up on early Indianapolis maps. The Indiana Medical History Museum that Kyle mentioned is located on the Central State property and definitely worth a visit if you're planning on visiting the cemetery.

Natalie: Try the web site for the Indiana Medical History Museum _www.imhm.org_ (http://www.imhm.org) . There's a book for sale for $5 that contains a history of the hospital, maps, and cemetery lists. It was written by Dr. Robert A. McDougal. I remember reading an article somewhere regarding these burials being located and/or moved to make way for construction? It's been several years ago. Maybe someone on the list can remember what that was about and where it was. Seems to me it was in the Indianapolis Star. Kyle

John: Congratulations on the job you're doing down in Missouri. Although this list has been quiet lately, we're always glad to hear success stories such as yours. Kyle

I've been on your site for 2 or 3 years and enjoy reading of your activities in Indiana. Thought I would advise you of a major program with an old cemetery in our little town. Ste. Genevieve is an old, small city on the Mississippi River; we go back to 1735-150 time period in the American frontier. In the 2nd half of the 1700's we were the "capitol" of the Upper Louisiana Territories. Memorial Cemetery was first opened somewhere around 1785 and closed around 1880. There was no more room. Ownership over the years passed to the Catholic Church in Ste. Genevieve then onto the city. It suffered much vandalism: stones toppled, iron crosses removed, grave markers removed and used for sidewalks/patios (they would lay the markers face down). One of the many interesting facts of this cemetery is that early settlers: Spanish, French, American, Native American & Afro Americans are buried here. Several years ago the city asked/gave permission to one of the local organizations, The Foundation for Restoration of Ste. Genevieve, to rehab Memorial Cemetery. We have cleaned up much of the overgrowth, raised money to erect an iron fence around the perimeter, the old fence was put up by the WPA back in the 1930's and was of a heavy gauge chicken wire construction. We have now a complete survey of all the existing graves, done a ground penetrating radar study of about 50% of the ground in an attempt to define burial plots, had a landscape plan developed and are about to begin monument restoration. Several years ago we applied for and received a "Save America's" grant of almost $150,000 which we have to match; we are actually pretty close to meeting the match - have until the end of September to raise another $15-20,000. To complete the restoration will require much more money. A new and major fund raising campaign is now being developed. The Foundation and all of Ste. Genevieve is very proud of this effort. If any of yopu are travelling west, please put our city on your itinerary and stopp in for a visit. Feel free to contact me. regards & keep up ypur good work, John

Hi, Hope someone can help me. A friend of mine had a relative that died at the Central State Hospital in Indianapols, IN in 1868. My friend has the actual written record of this from the hospital administrator. The record goes on to say he was buried on the grounds. I have a history of the hospital but the cemetery was not mentioned. Does anyone know if the cemetery still exists? Are there tombstones? Is there a list of those buried there and where would it be?

Hi L.A., Yes I am aware of the conference. I had agreed to speak at it back in November but then my father fell in December and just passed away the end of January. It has been a rough year already so I begged off. I don't know much about Save A Grave and can only trust the organizers have checked out the person taking over in my stead.

Greetings everyone. I've had several request to make the coordinators page a little more clear. I would like to know who is an existing County Coordinator? I really don't see that many. Or could it be they haven't' been linked in the past couple of years? That is a real possibility. <grin> I really need to work on a page that has all the logos on it too. That will come next. Each CC should have the NEW LOGO on their page as well as the link back to the main page. I've posted the requirements that were created below. There are county pages out there that haven't been touched since 1997 and the links are all bad now. Winter is a good time to get this all up to date. Let me hear from you and lets get this list updated, L.A.

Providing monthly status updates during roll call on INPCRP-L. Promoting the local INPCRP efforts through local media and organizations. Actively seeking volunteers for the cemetery projects. Ensuring that each volunteer or volunteer organization is properly recognized for their efforts. Providing a copy of the INPCRP guidelines, instructions, and survey forms to each Cemetery Project Coordinator. Helping the State Coordinator keep information as accurate and up-to-date as possible.
