Hopewell Cemetery (LA054)
8209 Sargent Road, Indpls., Indiana
 
Read by Elizabeth Huffman Hague
 
             This cemetery is cared for by the Lawrence Township Trustee and is located on the east side of Sargent Road about 8200 north.  There are probably many stones missing as there are large spaces between most of them.  There were at least 15 unknown stones when I read them in the Spring of 1992.  In the Spring of 1987 when I visited there were also stones containing the names Ayres, Casseter, Flanigan, and Beam.
