Sorry I can't help, recommend you check to see if she's registered with the
Carrell group or on Ancestry.

Sorry, I have no idea. I checked to see if she is a member of MCHGA, for whom I have
emails, but she is not. Has she left her email at the library for any reason? Perhaps in
a publication or other submission of records?

Do you have a current email for Joyce Carrell Hilligoss? She and I have a mututal
Carroll/Carrel relative. Some time back she was ill and I have lost contact with her.
If you do have contact information would you be so kind as to give her my email address?
Adam Carrel is the mutual relative.
Thank You

I have not heard of an IN Children's home in Martinsville. We had a county farm, but
I'm not sure when it closed . I have not heard of their books being extant. Their
cemtery location is argued, and there are probably no headstones. Regarding Curtis's
death date, check out the Morgan County History and Genealogy Association cemetery
database. In the event he had a headstone, he may have a reading in a Morgan County
cemetery. Hardback binders of cemeteries in the county are at the Morgan County Public
Library.
If/when you get a death date, you might find an obit by requesting it from the same
library. Check their website for the reference librarian. You may not get good
cooperation from the Morgan County Health Department, which wants only direct descendants
to request records. You might get better results from going to the Indiana Board of
Health, which holds the same information, if their policies are more flexible.
Some files of children who were wards of the state are available at the Indiana State
Archives. Some of their databases are in house, not on line yet. Hopefully one of these
searches will yield results for you.

Message Board Post:
I'm looking for any info on a child, Curtis Kirkwood, taken by the board of
Children's Guardians and sent to the Indiana Children's Home in Martinsville. He
was sent to a few foster homes and then died in the Home in 1909. Any idea where they
might have buried him? I have his entire file but it just says that he died. No indication
as to what happened or where they buried him. He was 14. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks, Scott
