Geocache Description:

Cache is a large pill container near the Friends Cemetery (aka Quaker Cemetery) in Mercer County.

I'm creating a series of caches near old cemeteries. The caches and hides are nothing special, just placed to bring you out to some great old cemeteries you might not know are there. The difficulty for many will be in figuring out how to get to the cemetery.

The new sign calls it "Quaker Cemetery" established circa 1842. On the map when I placed this cache, it was called Friends Cemetery." This cemetery is tucked way back almost out of sight from the road. The grass lane takes you back to see it. Notice the big tree to the left before you enter the cemetery - it has been there a long time and grown around the fence.

Please be respectful while visiting the cemetery and no caching after dark. The cache has room for geocoins and small TBs and contains some trade items for the kids and a gold dollar for FTF. Please bring your own pen and use care when replacing the cache.

Enjoy!
