About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The former Poor Farm for Monroe County was located west of Bloomington on land which is now Karst Farm Park.

The cemetery is located in Van Buren Township (Section 11 Township 8N Range 2W) on the north side of W Airport Road.

Indiana Cemetery Locations, Volume 2, published by the Indiana Genealogical Society (01 April 2006), gives the primary cemetery name as Cole Cemetery with an alternate name of County Farm Cemetery.

The cemetery is listed in the Cemetery and Burial Grounds Registry of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and in the State Historical Architectural and Archaeological Research Database (SHAARD) with Cemetery Record Number CR-53-144 (Marshall / Barrett).
