Geocache Description:

Should be a quick one.

Coil Oil Johnny was a poor boy who grew up in the Oil Creek Valley. When his Aunt died in a tragic accident in his youth he inherited her farm and the royalties from many oil leases in the area making him one of the 1st multi-millionare oil tycoons in the area. He became a legend in the area after going bankrupt in only a matter of months only to later retire comfortably. This cache is placed where I would like to think his house was located next to Oil Creek. His house was moved upstream and preserved where it can still be seen today.

If you would like to visit Coal Oil Johnny's house it is marked as a waypoint and a very short drive from here.
