Hello Gina,
There is definitely a Decatur Township in Marion County, Indiana.
I am sending you the link to The Genealogical
Society of Marion County, IN. They have read the cemeteries in Decatur
Township and have completed a BOOK of the Cemeteries. I think that it is
$12.00, and it list all the
burials there.
I am the Publications Director & Editor of the "Family Quest"
Journal for the Society but I don't have a copy of the Decatur Twp. Cemetery
Book as yet so I can't look for you.

I need help locating a grave or an obit for my gggrandfather. Merry McGuire
died in
Decatur Twp. I have been told there is no Decatur but it shows up on the US
Gen Web Map. So I am assuming it just no longer exists. Merry died Nov. 25,
1866 in Marion Co., (Decatur Twp). Merry was a former JP in Shelby Co., Ind
in the 1820's so he was probably well of enough for a funeral and maybe an
obit (or at least I hope) I have searched Hi and Low for this family for
years and would greatly appreciate any help! I live on the ARK/OK state line
and would be glad to return the favor by doing look ups here.
