This cache can has been placed at the historical site that was the boyhood home of Millard Fillmore our 13th president. Thus the reason that I picked this location to hide cache #13!
Fillmore was born in a log cabin in Moravia, Cayuga County, in the Finger Lakes region of New York State on January 7, 1800, to Nathaniel Fillmore and Phoebe Millard, as the second of nine children and the eldest son. (As this was three weeks after George Washington's death, Fillmore was the first U.S. President born after the death of a former president.) He was the first American president born in the 19th century. He later lived in East Aurora, New York in the southtowns region, south of Buffalo Though a Unitarian in later life Fillmore's ancestors were Scottish Presbyterians on his father's side and English dissenters on his mother's. His father apprenticed him to a cloth maker in Sparta, New York, at age fourteen to learn the cloth-making trade. He left after four months, but subsequently took another apprenticeship in the same trade at New Hope, New York. He struggled to obtain an education living on the frontier and attended New Hope Academy for six months in 1819. Later that year, he began to clerk for Judge Walter Wood of Montville, New York, under whom Fillmore began to study law.
This cache is an ammo can placed for you to find.It is filled with trade items . There will be a gold Milard Filmore coin for the First To Find. While at this site you can take time for a picnic at the table provided. If you drive north on Carver Rd you will see one of the best views in the area of Skaneatles Lake. This is farming country and we live in a unique area. I have lived here all my life and I never tire of the views and the changing of the seasons
