Geocache Description:

This is a multi-stage cache that will take you to several locations in Dorchester County to gather clues before finding the actual cache.

You will begin by gathering some numbers from two signs found in different locations in Dorchester County. The numbers you find will help you solve the coordinates for location #3. The coordinates of location #3 are: N 38° 24.8XX W 076° 14.0YY At location #1, you will find a historical marker at N 38° 35.918, W 075° 55.453. On this marker, you will find information on Dr. Daniel Sulivane. He was elected to the House of Delegates in 18XX. These "XX" numbers will give you the missing north coordinates of location #3. At location #2, you will find a monument located at N 38° 34.502, W 076° 4.414. On this marker, the inscription reads, "Peace to the mighty dead, 19YY-1945." The "YY" numbers will give you the missing west coordinates to location #3. At location #3, you will find a sign between the building and the road. The left side of the sign will show you a layout of graves at this location. To find the hidden cache, you will need to fill in some missing coordinates again. The hidden cache is at the following coordinates: N 38° 24.8XX W 076° 14.0YY To find the XX coordinates, look on the sign and find the number location of the only grave site on the grounds that was never used. To find the YY coordinates, look on the sign and find the number location of the final resting place of Mr. Samuel Dunnock. You will find an ammo can with a logbook, pen, and some other goodies. FTF gets a MD Lottery scratch-off. Good luck! **Congrats to hostanut for the FTF!
