Subject: [MARION COUNTY, IN] meningitis epidemic
Hello, List
I've discovered that two members of my family died in Feb.
1930 in Indianapolis. The cause of death is listed as "epidemic
meningitis." Does anyone know the story about this epidemic? Would
there be a local source I could contact? I live in California.
Thank you. Kathleen Dewey
