Geocache Description:

A camo container in a cemetery in Walsh, WI.



Welcome to St. Joseph, a small sized cemetery in Walsh, WI. Members of the Chevalier Family will help you determine the coordinates for the cache. The listed coordinates will bring you to the family site. From there you must get the last digit from the year of birth or year of death and substitute it into the formula below to get the coordinates for the cache location.

The cache is not on, near or around any graves, stones, markers or monuments. Please use proper WSQ caching etiquette. If there is anyone in the area show proper respect and come back for the cache another time. The cemetery closes at dusk. Please do not enter after hours.

The cache is located at the following coordinates:

N 45 AB.CDE
W 87 FG.HIJ

A= David’s Year of Death
B= David’s Year of Birth
C= Catherine’s Year of Death
D= Ernest’s Year of Birth
E= Daughter Amelia’s Year of Death
F= Joseph’s Year of Death
G= Mother Amelia’s Year of Birth
H= Catherine’s Year of Birth
I= Rose’s Year of Birth
J= Ernest’s Year of Death


The cache is a large camo pill container with a log, pencil and sharpener. There is a gold coin for the First To Find! I also threw in a couple of superballs and a new Travel Bug owned by the grandkids. Good Luck!
