Geocache Description:

This is one of a series of caches that will take you to some of the small rural cemeteries in Jackson County Iowa. They are not designed to be P&G so as the description leads you around the cemetery take time to look at the stones and consider the lives and times of those who have gone before us.

Please be respectful, do not hunt at night, do not disturb mourners, and leave this peaceful and revered place in good condition. Remember to practice CITO, always. Thank You
