Inkyfiller: It appears that this little cache has gone missing. Perhaps it has joined Inky in Heaven. Thanks to all the folks who dropped by and wrote lovely stories about their adventures. Perhaps I will see you on the trails one day. Enjoy this life. It is the only one we get!

Geocache Description:

Historic cometary at one of the original Baptist Churches in the Ottawa Valley

Baptist beginnings in Ontario started with the arrival of Baptists from the USA around the year 1800. They settled in the Niagara - Kingston - Belleville areas. A number of churches formed. .

By 1820 there were 20 congregations. These Baptist churches were very evangelistic and eager to plant new churches. During the second half of the 1800’s their growth was phenomenal. Census records show that between 1851 and 1891 Ontario’s population increased by 122%. The Baptist population increased by 249%. In Quebec the percentages were even greater: 67% and 364%.
The Ottawa Baptist Association (OBA), formally organized in 1836, was composed of six Baptist churches of the Ottawa Valley: Breadalbane and Clarence in Ontario; Papineauville, Dalesville, St. Andrews and Montreal in Quebec.
BREADALBANE established 1816
On August 2, 1816, the first Baptist Church in the Ottawa Valley was organized under the leadership of Scottish immigrants, Allan McDiarmid and Peter McDougall

Note to Cachers. Although this cemetery is very old, it is still active and due respect and reverence are expected.
