Gina,
There is an address you can write to for Indianapolis obits and another
one for Indianapolis and surrounding area obits. I don't have it at my
fingertips, but if no one else answers your post with the address,
please repost me and I will look it up. I think the first is ten cents
a name and the second twenty five cents per name. All you need to send
them is the name and death date.
I lived in Indy for about 30 yrs and now live in Shelby Co, IN. I have
been going through all the old estate papers in Shelby Co, but don't
recognize Merry McGuire. Do you know where he lived in Shelby Co? Do
you know when he moved to Indianapolis?
By the way, there is a Decatur Twp in Indianapolis. It is in the
southwest segment of the county.

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.
