Geocache Description:

**Congrats to ColnagoC40 for FTF**

You are looking for small containers, can hold small trade items, bring your own pen.
This cemetery is actually 4 cemeteries put together. It was originally the Fitzgerald's Family Cemetery. They buried their family and the family slaves in it: the exact location of these graves is lost as the first marked grave in today's Windom Cemetery is in 1874, by then the original grave markers of the Fitzgerald's were unreadable and almost gone. The old Fitzgerald Cemetery is probably along one of the sides or back. But location was known when the Donaldson's started their own family cemetery when they owned the farmland. By then the railroad was underway and the town started, a purchase of land by the Odd Fellows Lodge created a cemetery for the new town to use. Later the town bought land and the Windom Cemetery completed the various stages of development.
