Biographical
sheets on the more than 600 individuals named below who were buried
in this Cemetery between 1819 and 1988 may be found in three binders at
the Union Cemetery Indexes at the Charlestown Library.
These sheets contain a wealth of genealogical information, including the deceased's date and place of birth, date and place of death, parents' names, parents' birth and death dates, place of parents' marriage, siblings of the deceased, immediate family of deceased, children of the deceased and occasional additional remarks.
This
data has been painstakingly collected and maintained by the late Mr. W.
C. Lewman and later by Mrs. Edith Rachel Lewman King of Sellersburg, the
present custodian.

has provided us with a transcript of an 1920's genealogy column in the
Indianapolis newspaper. That information is available in Adobe Acrobat PDF

NOTE WELL: Only the names, year of death and interment number for the individuals found in these volumes as of October 5, 1996 are listed below. Two separate lists have been consolidated here into one list, organized in alphabetic order by last name. If you wish to learn more about any of these individuals, please visit or contact the Charlestown Library.

Union Cemetery is located inside the Indiana Army Ammunition Plant between Charlestown and Jeffersonville on Highway 62. Click here for a topographical map of this site, courtesy of www.TopoZone.com.
Access
to the Cemetery is presently possible only for those who do not have prior
security clearance by entering the Plant at Gate 2 or Gate 19 and being
escorted by a member of the Security staff (who may be contacted at 812-284-7600).
Because the staff at the now-deactivated plant is scarce (especially on
weekends), we recommend that you call the Plant at least several days in
advance and make prior arrangements for entry.
ICI Americas, the contractor operating "Facility One", as the Plant is now known, recently spent an great deal of money replacing the chain link fence around Union Cemetery.
The Ladies Union Club in nearby Prather, Indiana, is raising funds now to build a new entrance to the Cemetery and to reinstall the bell from the old Union Methodist Church, demolished in 1941.
We hope this information will be helpful to you in learning more about your family history.
