Listed below is the transcription of the tombstones in the Thompson Family Cemetery, Marion Township, Allen County, Indiana. This cemetery is located on Thompson Road approximately one quarter mile east of US 27 and approximately 500 feet off the north side of the road in a small wooded area in the middle of a field. This cemetery is no longer in use. Many stones are buried or laying on the ground. The cemetery was photographed and transcribed in November of 2010. All stones in place at that time were included. If there is a photo of the tombstone, there will be a link after the name.

The listings are in alphabetical order. One surname is listed per stone. If a stone contained multiple people, the names on the stone are listed in order, from left to right. Information that pertains to a single individual is listed after their name. If the information pertains to multiple names, such as a marriage date, it is listed after all the names.

In some instances the stones were very worn and hard to read. In 1932 the DAR did a reading of the cemetery. The information from the 1932 reading was used if the stones were unreadable or if the stones were not found.

At this time, requests to photograph specific tombstones are not being taken. There is no other information on any person other than what is listed.
