Geocache Description:

Camo-taped waterproof (I hope!) Nalgene pill container with a bit of extra camouflage. Log only, bring your own pen. Tiny token for the FTF. Please try to replace as securely as possible.

Cache is in Willowhole Cemetery, about 2 miles south of North Zulch on FM 1372. I have a great-uncle and great-aunt buried here.

This community was settled in the 1850s and named for a nearby spring-fed hollow. The cemetery served as a community graveyard for the town, which until the early 1900s contained businesses, schools, and churches. The first recorded burial here was that of Mary J. Burts in 1866. A cemetery association was founded in 1917 about the time annual July 4th picnics began. In 1977 a fund for perpetual maintenance was established. Among the more than 2600 people buried here are pioneers of the area and their descendants and veterans of conflicts from the Civil War to Vietnam.

Information was taken from: (visit link) (and also may be found on historical marker at cemetery)

These pages have nothing to do with getting the cache – they are just in case you're interested in reading more about the area.

Congrats to Sneaky Ninjas for the FTF!
