Lafayette, Indiana - State's First Caesarean Section

Unfortunately, the farmhouse and road marker have been torn down. If you are driving on US 52 North from Lebanon you will see a sign on the right side of the road saying "Historic Marker Ahead." The marker and farmhouse have been replaced by green grass and small pine trees. [Melissa Mitchell, 10/02/2005]
