Hi Diane:
Did you check with Holy Cross? Holy Cross and St Joseph cemeteries are in
together and their records along with Calvary are all kept in the same
office. My Ggrandmother died in 1898 and they have her records:
Holy Cross Cemetery
435 West Troy Avenue
Indianapolis, Indiana
Phone: (317) 784-4439
The following URL is for funeral homes. You might want to search on Marion
County and send the fineral homes a letter. Someone might have an answer:

You might also check with the Indiana State Library, Genealogy Division:

Subject: [MARION COUNTY, IN] finding respository for funeral homes
Any ideas?....
In 1912 my great-mother was buried in the St Joseph Cemetery in
Indianapolis. The records for the cemetery burned in 1919...age old
story...no records for plots. This cemetery is huge...been there.
Now, on the death certificate it states her funeral home person was George
STEGMAN. Does anyone know if and where the records for the funeral home
may have ended up? I've emailed the university in Indianpolis to ask this
question; but don't have an answer to date. I'd appreciate any input.
Thanks,
Diane
