The following biography is from material developed for Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis, Indiana by Tom Davis:
John Wesley Hardrick (September 21,1891-October 18, 1968)
John Hardrick"s grandfather moved to Indianapolis around 1880 to escape the racism around his rural Kentucky farm. By 1888, John's father, Shepard Hardrick, had married Georgia Etta West and settled on South Prospect Street, where John was born in 1891.
John showed a natural talent in art very early on, (showing 500 of 5822 characters). |
