The Allen County Genealogical Society has a name only index to all county cemeteries through the 1980's publishing date. You may want to check the Allen County Lookup page for a volunteer willing to do lookups from the cemetery books, which are published and for sale by the Allen County Genealogical Society of Indiana.

The Mary Penrose Wayne Chapter National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution has started the Allen County Indiana Cemetery Project listing names and photos of Allen County cemeteries. They have a growing name index for transcriptions and photographs. Some photos show chalk rubbings of old tombstones. Mark Davis, owner of Stone Saver Cemetery Restoration gave a cemetery restoration presentation at the Allen County Public library in January 2009. Mark pointed out the possible damage to tombstones that can occur from chalk rubbings and other chemicals applied to old tombstones. I show on my personal web site that you can get much better tombstone photos by manipulating the angle of the sunlight based on the time of year and day the photos are taken. Mirrors and reflectors can be used when the sun does not provide the correct angle of lighting to create shadows as shown on Andrew W. Griffith's web page.
