“OHIO SPIRIT
QUEST”
The Ohio Spirit Quest series of geocaches will
take you to a number of historic cemeteries built by Buckeye
Pioneers. This series is inspired by and a continuation of the
Indiana Spirit Quest caches created by Six Dog Team. In just over
three years, the SPIRIT QUEST has grown to over 550 caches, with
the hiding teams growing as well. The Ohio Spirit Quest has begun
to grow with twenty two current hides in one Northwest Ohio county,
with four current caching teams, three each with A Man and His
Dog... and one with A Woman and her Dog. Over 1,000 cachers have logged over 20,000 finds. One cache
machine found 111 ISQ caches in a single day (daylight hours
only).
Come with us now for a
virtual tour of this old burial ground via this page, then go out
and find the cache!
Quaker Cemetery
OHIO SPIRIT QUEST
#022
"Acquaintances"
This is our twenty second hide across the
border in Ohio. Listen to what -E- has to say:
Welcome to Quaker Cemetery,
Brady Township, Williams County, Ohio.
Quaker Cemetery is not one
named after an early settler of the area. Quaker refers to the
religious sect of Quakers, one that branched from Christianity in
England in the 17th Century. Over the years, the Quakers have also
become known as "The Religious Society of Friends". Next to this
cemetery you will see a small building (at least to our standards
today) with a sign showing that it was the Meeting House of the
Society of Friends. Although you cannot enter the house, a walk
around the outside is a great short tour of history.
Various Headstones
The cache container is a
camo'd small lock n' lock container. Parking is available
just off of the road in front of the meeting house. If
you find a fallen US flag, please stick it back in the ground.
As always, please be respectful, and cache in, trash out. Pray
for our Soldiers, Marines, Sailors, CoastGuardsmen and Airmen
in harm's way.
Placed by a member of:
