Geocache Description:

This cache is located in Buck Road Cemetery in Maryville Township of Illinois. Terrain is just off of the hard surface. Difficulty and terrain only warrant a 1 on the scales.



Buck Road Cemetery was established in 1867. It is located on Route 162, 1 mile west of IL Route 159, and 2 miles east of IL Route 157. The majority of names that you see on the stones, are of Bohemian descent "which today is the Czech and Slovak Republics in Eastern Europe". The cemetery is divided into 4 blocks, and is approximately 4 acres in total. Block 1 has the gazebo, Block 2 has the Cross of Christ/W.W. 1 statue, Block 3 houses the flag poles and Block 4 houses the newest gravesites.

If you see either of the groundskeepers out working, just give us (my Dad and I) a wave and make the find. Feel free to take a stroll through the place and enjoy the history.

This is a simple pull off and sign with a small kool aid container. Some small trade items would be fine.
