The chances of an obituary that early are fairly slim. I would suggest you try the city
directories for the years 1899, 1900 & 1901. I tried searching for the ED but had no
luck determining which it would be based on current maps. The streets have changed way
too much in the past 100 years, I'm sorry.

Subject: [INMARION] Would like to locate an Enumeration District No.
I'm trying to find my ggg-grandfather, Isaac COYLE, in the 1900 census. He
seems to be an elusive bird. Today I received a copy of his death
certificate in the mail. He died in 1902; he was 91 years old--cause
"senility". His address at death is recorded as 1241 Lexington Ave. (Center
Twp) Indianapolis, IN. He is a widower at the time of his death.
His youngest son is living in Acton (Franklin Twp), Marion Co., Indiana--but
the 1900 census for Robert Coyle's family does not list his father, Isaac.
Another son, Peter Allen Coyle is living in Indianapolis, and also does not
list Isaac.
I have checked the Heritage Quest on-line census images (through my
library)--no Isaac Coyle (or Coil)
So, I'm wondering if it seems a logical search path to locate Lexington Ave.
census in the 1900 census for Marion County and try to find out "who" was
living at that address? Could if be that ol' Isaac is listed there with a
married daughter or granddaughter?
OR--would it be easier to do a newspaper search for an obituary since I now
death and burial dates?
Thanks for any help and suggestions,
Betty G.
