Cool Roadside cemetery cache
Another matchstick container in a peaceful old cemetary bring your
own pencil. The town of Cornwall,. named for one of the counties of
England, was auctioned off at Fairlield in 1738, and settlement
began the same year, largely from eastern Connecticut. A town was
not incorporated until 1740. Cornwall consists of mountains and
upland farms surrounding a small central valley, avoided by the
first settlers because of its heavy stand of pine, which made land
clearing difficult. The town is characterized by pine groves, stone
walls and wide offlooks. Route 4 passes through town passing the
Cemetery, containing flat slab which marks the grave of Henre
Obookiah, who died in 1818 while a student at the Mission School,
after giving the impetus for missionary work in the Sandwich
Islands. A short walk through an old country cemetary will get you
this one. Aside from the parking the cache itself is snow friendly.
Lots of real old headstones in this one. No need to touch any
monuments. Bring your own pencil.
