Geocache Description:

This cache is NOT AT THE POSTED CORDS! This is brief family history of my family. Geocaching is a family oriented activity, so I figured I would share a little about my family.

This cache is easy to do. You just need to do a little homework before you go out and get this one. My wife, my son and myself were born in 3 different places. My son was born in Sicily, My wife was born in Murray, KY and I was born in Huntingdon, PA. My wife and I were married in Norfolk, VA. To find this cache you will have to figure out the following questions:
1. Pennsylvania was the 2nd state admitted to the union. What year was it admitted? 1A8B.
2. Kentucky was the 15th state admitted to the union. What year was it admitted? 1C92
3. Italy was unified in 1F61 and was considered a republic in 1D46.
4. Virginia is the E7th largest state in area.
The coordinates are N 36 41.ABC W 088 37.DEF
This cache is placed with permission of the property owner (ME). Please pull up in the driveway. The cache is nearby. Don't worry, on one side of the property is a field and on the other is family. If you need to, you can back up in the yard to turn around, after you find the cache. The driveway off the road is a very dangerous road. The speed limit is 55MPH. This cache was placed to expand finding caches in Mayfield, and to get out in the county a little to find other caches. Please, no caching after 9:00 P.M.
