Salem Cemetery "Illinois Spirit Quest #138" Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

catnaround: This one has not seen much action since it was originally hidden. It's just too far off the beaten path I think and it is a bit too far for us to go to maintain anymore. So, we are archiving it. Thanks to those who did look for it.

This cache is another in the Illinois Spirit Quest series of caches in Knox County.

There are many old monuments here, some dating back to the 1840's. The coordinates listed above will take you to a cache hidden along the road leading to the cemetery. This cache contains the coordinates (and name) to a monument in the cemetery of a husband and wife. You will need their respective years of passing to solve the puzzle below and attain the coordinates to the final cache. The final cache is not hidden in the cemetery, but it is nearby.
