We'd appreciate a FAV Point too if you deem this cache worthy!
Description:
The published coordinates are NOT the correct ones to the cache site. You will need to follow the instructions and do a little research and math to get the true coordinates. The easy way to get answers -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jefferson_Davis Okay I just couldn't pass this up when I saw that the roads Jefferson Blvd. & Davis Rd. intersected in West Sacramento. I grew up in a home with a father who was an avid Civil War buff. He was a big collector of artifacts and our family actively participated in Civil War Reenactments from when I was born till I was around 17. It was a constant reminder for me as I acted out those battles of all those who lost their lives and payed the ultimate sacrifice on both sides, Union and Confederate. In order to find the correct and complete coordinates for this find you will need to do a little research on Jefferson Davis first. I was a Union soldier through and through but that didn't stop this cache :-) Here are the partial coordinates and instructions on how to fill in the gaps. Good Luck! It's not too tough. Just use the webpage I have suggested. All the info is there. partial coordinates: N 38 A.9A W 121 33.3BC A) To solve for A, take the number of children in Jefferson Davis's immediate family. + The number child that he was in the order. ( 1 being the first born ) + In 1845, Jefferson David was elected to what office which was considered his first real political success? If your answer is the Senate Appointed him Chairman of Military Affairs (add 5 to your previous # total) or If your answer is the United States House of Representatives (add 10 to your previous # total) + Who won the Cival War? If your answer is The Confedrates (add 0 to your previous total) or If your answer is The Union (add 1 to your previous total) (everyone better get that one :-) = A B) To solve for B, What was the number of years that Jefferson Davis held the office of the President of the Confederate States of America? (Consider partial years as whole years for this purpose) + What happened to Jefferson Davis at the conclusion of the war in 1865? If your answer is he was killed (Add 1) or If your answer is he was captured (Add 2) = B C) To solve for C, Take the month number that Jefferson David died and subtract 10 = C
