Geocache Description:

New Sweden's First Settlers Memorable Gravesite

These coords will not bring you to the cache. It will bring you to a memorable gravestone erected in 1930 of all the first settlers who died (mostly during the first winter months.)
To find the cache coordinates you must do a little math.

The coords of the cache are:

N 46 56.RVF
W 068 07.VFV

To find the letters you must look at the gravestone.

R= Martha C. Hedman was born in 18RR
V= Ingrid B. Olson was born in 187V
F= Year of the first pionner who died on the gravestone: 187F

Please place the cache back exactly how you found it, so others can do it as well. Thanks and good luck!
