Geocache Description:

This cache is located in the Old Town Cemetery in Clarksville. You are looking for a camo tube container. It lies in the SE corner of the Clarksville city limits. There are two entrances to the cemetery, the north entrance is no longer used and there is some parking just inside of the south entrance on the side of the road. Permission was given by Jeff Kolb, City council member.

Old Town Cemetery was started soon after the first settlers arrived in the area with the oldest dates on headstones being Henry Hilton, who died on Sept. 21, 1851, and Charles Lowe, who died on Dec. 2, 1851. In the early 1900's the city council outlawed more burials in Old Town unless it involved family, with the last burial being that of Edna Prey in 1944. There are more burials in Old Town than what the existing number of headstones would indicate. Sometime after Lynnwood Cemetery was plotted on the west side of Clarksville, several graves were removed from Old Town Cemetery and interned at Lynnwood. Since no plot book for the cemetery could be found at this time, it is firmly believed locally that it burned in the town fire of 1956.
The last known pre-1900 burial was that of Alex Glenn who died May 10, 1894.
