Geocache Description:

The condition of the cemetery is fenced and maintained. This is an active cemetery so please be respectful.

This cache is part of a series placed in cooperation with fellow cacher “Sore Feet and Bad Knees”.

Cache contains log book only. This is a Micro, so bring a pen to write in the log.

Just down from the cache location is Jincy's Kitchen [open only on Friday-Saturday-Sunday]. Jincy’s Kitchen offers home-cooking and is located in a building formerly used as a set in two movies, including "Where the Red Fern Grows. Outside the store you can see an old horse drawn hearse.

This area is known as Qualls-One story is that sometime after the arrival of the Ross Party [who traveled the Trail of Tears due to the relocation in 1838], a cabin owned by a family named Qualls was burned to the ground by the Cherokee Lighthorse Police and that event gave birth to the area name "Qualls Burnt Cabin". Sometime between World War I and World War II, that original name was shortened in common usage to the present "Qualls".

Qualls Road and Burnt Cabin Road remain on the present maps of the area to memorialize that history.

Good Luck and Happy Hunting.

Congratulation to markandsons for FTF.
