Records for Woodlawn Cemetery in Terre Haute are at Highland Lawn Cemetery.
I have had no problems getting information. Try e-mailing them at:
Highland Lawn Cemetery <lennie(a)highlandlawn.com>
at least that is what I have for the e-mail address. Haven't used it for a
while
so it may not work.

Subject: Re: [INVIGO] Woodlawn Cemetary info question.
A marriage record is more likely to have the complete name but a
relative
of her family could have paid for the lot or be buried on adjoining lots.
Ancestry.com lists this Indiana record for a marriage and Marion Co could
have the complete record if this is your James Soden. You need to supply
an
approximate birth year for Mary and if you know where the marriage took
place, etc. Check the death records for her children as well as the
Social
Security applications made by her children. It began in 1933. Have
you
checked the newspapers in the surrounding counties, Indianapolis
newspaper,
church newspapers and church records kept on site or at the denomination
archive .
