Megan, 

Susan Branstner conducted excavations on Lime Island, in the St. Mary's River in 1990. The focus was more on an associated structure, but there should be data included concerning the lime kilns, too. The report would be on file at the OSA in Lansing, Michigan.

There are also lime kilns in Delphi, Indiana at the Wabash-Erie Canal Park, (see www.wabashanderiecanal.org/). Excavations have been conducted in the park and may include the kilns, in which case Indiana's OSA should have copies, as well as the Wabash and Erie Canal Association.

While I've found some historical and technical information on lime kilns, I haven't found many archaeological reports that address this type of structure. I know that a similar question was asked on this listserv about a decade ago, and some of the responses have been useful, but if anyone has more recent info, that would be much appreciated.
