Sharon,
Thanks to your information, I was able to locate an OBIT for Hiram ADAMS which gave his
burial location as Cullen Cemetery. Here is the OBIT:
Obituary - "The Muncie Morning Star" Thursday August 7, 1919 Page 7
OCTOGENARIAN DIES OF CANCER AT COWAN HOME
"Following an extended illness of cancer, Hiram Adams, 82, died at his home in Cowan,
last evening at 7:30 o'clock. The deceased was a veteran of the civil war, having
served in Co G, 134th regiment and Co B 147th regiment Indiana Volunteers. He is survived
by three sons, James Irvin, Robert and William Adams and two daughters, Mrs Lucinda
Shepard and Mrs Catherine M. Young. The funeral services will be held in the Methodist
Protestant Church at Cowan, Friday morning at 10 o'clock with the Rev Mr Vice in
charge. Interment will take place in Cullen's Cemetery."
[NOTE: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Cowan is an unincorporated town in
Monroe Township, Delaware County, Indiana."]
Cullen Cemetery is in Delaware Co., Indiana

It is all coming together! Thank you for your time and caring enough to help me out!
