Geocache Description:


A little history first; courtesy of the Freeport Historical Society: The Webster Road Cemetery was purchased from Benjamin and Mary Webster for $28 - the date of the transaction is not known. The earliest know burial in the cemetery dates to 1792 although the oldest headstone only dates to 1833. The cemetery contains the graves of one Revolutionary War Veteran and seven from the War of 1812. If you take a few minutes to walk through the cemetery, you will notice many longtime Freeport family names such as Porter and Staples. The observant cacher will also easily spot another more widely known Freeport family name.

About the cache: It is hidden in plain sight. You do not need to go inside the fence to retrieve it. Be very careful when replacing the cache so it can be retrieved by the next person. Please be respectful of the site and do not attempt this cache in the unlikely event a service is taking place.

Stealthnote: Bikers and joggers seem to come out of nowhere.
