I have recently learned that my maternal grandfather's maternal
grand-parents (my great-great-grand father & mother) are both buried in the
Masonic cemetery in Young America, Cass County. He is Elmer E MENDENHALL
and she is Mary Ella (DUNCAN) MENDENHALL. I have visited the cemetery and
have pics of his mother's headstone (Sarah HOOVER-MENDENHALL) but never
found a headstone or plaque for Elmer or his wife, Ella. I know that Ella
died sometime after 1904 and before the June 1910 census was taken. I also
know that Elmer married Mary Clementine FOIST (her 3rd but not her last
marriage) and I know that Elmer was enumerated with a nephew, Davis L
JESTER, in Miami County, Ohio at the time of the 1920 census.
I am trying to confirm burial in Cass County, but have no date of death for
either individual.
Can death records be located, either in Cass County or Indianapolis if I do
not have a date other than a time-span?
ANY assistance is greatly appreciated!
Thank you,

"The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price,
peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft
living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life." -- Theodore Roosevelt in a
