Congregation Esras Achem Cemetery – Indianapolis – Marion County – United States

Congregation Esras Achem Cemetery is a Jewish cemetery in Indianapolis’s Center Township, Marion County, Indiana. The cemetery was established by Congregation Esras Achem, also spelled Ezras Achem, during the period from 1928 through the 1940s. It forms part of the concentration of Jewish cemeteries developed along Kelly Street, alongside cemeteries associated with other Indianapolis congregations. Local cemetery-history records describe its creation as part of the expansion of Jewish congregational burial grounds as Indianapolis’s Jewish population grew. Available burial indexes document more than 200 interments, including graves dating from the early twentieth century into the twenty-first century. Researchers seeking additional names or burial details can consult the local Jewish cemetery database maintained through JewishGen, which requires registration.
