Geocache Description:

The coordinants will take you to beautiful St. Mary's Cemetery. This famous person is buried at the impressive and only mausoleum located in the cemetery. The mausoleum also has a memorial for her lost husband who perished on April 15,1912. This person not only survived this disaster but also rescued her own pomeranian dog (one of three that had been saved from the disaster). For more info and spoiler of this person visit link in clue below.

You are looking for a 2-cup "ziplock brand" screw top container with cammo tape located at the posted coords which is about 100 feet from the mausoleum. Make sure you check the mausoleum out too. (It's the whole point of the cache).
BYOP (bring your own pen/pencil)
As this a cemetery, please respect the area. There is no need to go near or disturb any graves. Cache is located away from any graves. Also, absolutely no night caching as this area is patrolled and closed after dusk.
****PLEASE cover cache well and not make it too obvious as it looks like some trails are forming from muggles walking down hill from an upper trail that are near ground zero. Thanks.
