2010 Cemetery Research

HAR provides technical assistance in identifying the presence and location of unmarked graves using state-of-the-art electronic subsurface imaging technologies. We also offer precision survey and graphic illustration of site surface features to augment existing cemetery data. Accurate site maps are another very important and essential facet of cemetery research and documentation. HAR has been involved in more than 100 cemetery projects since adding these services in 2000. During 2010, we will continue working with township trustees and cemetery commissions throughout Indiana and neighboring states.

Need an accurate site map or to know more about vacant areas in a cemetery? Contact HAR.

You can call it mysticism if you want to, but I have always believed that there was some divine plan that placed this great continent between two oceans to be sought out by those who were possessed of an abiding love of freedom and a special kind of courage.
