INDIANA STATE SOLDIERS’ HOME CEMETERY

West Central Section   



The Indiana State Soldiers' Home is located on State Road 43 North in West Lafayette, Indiana.  The cemetery is located behind the home and has an entrance on Soldiers Home Road.  This reading was made from digital photographs taken of each tombstone. In the event that you care to visit the cemetery to find your ancestor's grave, I have transcribed them in row order, not alphabetically, to make them easier to find.  The rows were walked from north to south (left to right facing the stones).   I have linked the names to pictures of the tombstones.  I tried to be careful and get them all correct, but please let me know if you find a bad link.
