History
Established in 1881.
In May of 1881, Frank W. Flanner became Indiana’s first licensed embalmer and opened a mortuary in downtown Indianapolis. In 1887 Charles J. Buchanan joined his brother-in-law in the business, and the Flanner and Buchanan partnership was formed. The company was initially funded with money received from a Civil War pension.
