Geocache Description:

Black's Cemetery is an old 18th & 19th century cemetery beside the original site of the Gettysburg Presbyterian Church from 1740. There is no church building there, and no new bodies get buried there. But it is one of the oldest cemeteries in Adams County.

The actual cache is a bison, located at the above coordinates. To claim this cache, you must sign the log and answer the questions below via email. Logs without emails will be deleted. DO NOT ANSWER IN YOUR LOGS. We hope you take a little time to walk around this cemetery and read some of the stones. They are very beautiful, even though some are no longer legible.

1) There are three gravestones just beside the cache. One of them is from a Revolutionary War Veteran. What is his first name. (If you can actually read his last name, send that too.)

2) There is only one oblesque grave marker. It belongs to William Boyd Senior. How many wives are buried with William, and what are their names?

Additional Hints (No hints available.)
