Geocache Description:

A relatively easy nano - part of the Coppell Carpet Bomb Cache (CCBC) Series

The tenth cache in the Coppell Carpet Bomb Campaign. This one is relatively straight forward. The nano cache is located at the historic Parrish Family Cemetary. Here is the text from the Historical Marker.

Marker Text:
James and Eliza (Record) Parrish received a 640-acre Peters Colony land grant and settled here in 1853. When James died later that year, Eliza set aside one-half acre of land for a family burial ground. Since then, more than 35 members of the Parrish family have been buried here, including Eliza (d. 1918), her second husband Henry Parrish (James' brother, d. 1866), and 6 of their 7 children and their descendants. Eliza's father, Josiah Record, and two of her brothers, John and Silas, are also buried here. The cemetery records this extended family's long-time presence in Coppell. (1992)

Additional Considerations:
- Please show the proper respect when visiting this site.
- You do not need to enter the grounds to retrieve the cache.
- This cemetery is located in a residential neighborhood - so please use stealth when retrieving this cache.
- Please return the cache to its proper loction after signing.
