"Down the Lane" are cemetery caches we've
placed that are off the beaten path.
They are not located on, or possibly even visible from, paved
roads.
As these locations may have dirt or grass entrances, their
conditions can be affected by weather.
We hope you have fun tracking these hidden gems! :)

Welcome
to Banks Cemetery
Carryall Township, Paulding County,
Ohio
The Banks Cemetery is located along the
eastern bank of the Maumee River. Upon entering the area, it is
difficult to identify it as a cemetery. Assuming due to it's
abandonment or vandalism, no actual stones are standing in this
graveyard.
Surrounding the only monument, the remaining stones have been
placed into a memorial. So as to the true number of people who rest
here, we do not know.
As of our our visit of a chilly, below freezing November day, the
grounds were completely covered in leaves. If you find any more
memorials of stones other than those in the monument area, photos
would be very much appreciated.
Guessing from the fact that the area may have a few possible
muggles in the area during the summertime, bringing fishing
equipment may be a useful cover.
The container is a regular-sized lock-n-lock, with ample room for
tradeables and trackables.
Congrats to jtbrady01 for the
First-To-Find"!!!
