Thursday is for Ancestors Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

onecrazycanadian: Hi,

The low health score on this cache has remained below 60 since our last contact. I see no sign of any maintenance being done to correct this and I have had no response from the owner since my last contact. Due to the lack of response I have no idea if any corrective action has been taken. Consequently I am archiving the cache at this time. If the owner does happen to complete the maintenance required and wish to activate the cache again just let me know and I will consider unarchiving it once the issue is resolved.

Thanks

Geocache Description:

Another taste of history which is fairly accessible.

The town of Randolph was originally known as Chortitz, based on a location in Russia / Ukraine from which many of the original settlers of this area came. The Chortitz church across the road from this cache was built in 1897 and still has services held in German on Sunday mornings. This church was the "mother church" for many other Chortitzer and Bergthaler churches which spread throughout south-west Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Mexico and elsewhere.

Although many members of our extended family are buried in this cemetery, the most famous is Aeltester (Bishop) Gerhard Wiebe who was one of the leaders which brought the Mennonite migration to Manitoba in the 1870s. He was buried here at N 49° 32.723' W 096° 49.823'.
