James Jackson's Cache Traditional Cache

Shreklets: Since "God" decided my caches were beneath his great and infinite wisdom and skill, I have decided to remove all my caches and end my work in Geocaching. Since there is very little thanks for the all the work these caches require, it is not worth all the money and time I put into it. Thanks for the run.

Geocache Description:

You are looking for a nano in a small pocket park in downtown North Augusta.

This park is dedicated to James Urquhart Jackson.

James Urquhart Jackson, founder of North Augusta, was born in the village of Harrisonville, near Augusta, Georgia, on June 24, 1856. It was his vision that shaped North Augusta's early years.

In 1890 Jackson acquired 5600 acres of land across the river from Augusta in South Carolina. The following year, he constructed a bridge across the Savannah River at 13th Street. As the city developed, a trolley line was built in 1897 to connect Augusta and North Augusta. In 1902 Jackson constructed the first interurban road in the South which connected the resort hotels in the communities of Augusta, North Augusta and Aiken. The Hampton Terrace Hotel was constructed in 1903 and was patronized by many of the most influential people of the time.

Jackson died at Rosemary Hall, his home in North Augusta, on October 15, 1925. His dream, however, continues today. Residents and visitors enjoy the tree lined streets, small parks and picturesque homes of North Augusta.

Please be careful hunting this one. Be mindful of the high muggle concentration and the landscape. You might not want to get this one at night unless you want to answer questions from NAPD.

Happy Hunting.
