Geocache Description:

A camoed pill bottle buried beneath some rubble. The coords for this cache are 38 50.ABC 094 32.DEF

Finding this cache coordinates is easier done at home than on the road. I wanted to place a really good puzzle cache, however I had a hard time thinking of a good puzzle but after some searching I found one. As you can see there are 6 clues to find this little tube buried under the rubble. The hardest part is figuring out "where did I find those numbers?" You must make the grave decision to look and find. Clue 1 - 7721953 - Pro-Wrestler. He also appeared in motion pictures such as "Tarzan and the Leopard Woman" (1946), and "That Nasty Nuisance" (1943). Died of congestive heart failure. A= Margret's year of birth minus Abe's year of birth. Clue 2 - 9108167 - Civil War Union Soldier. He served as a Private in Company B, 21st Pennsylvania Volunteer Cavalry. On June 26th, 1863, he along with Nathanial Lightner were on patrol on Baltimore Pike just south of the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. They came upon members Colonel E.V. White's 35th Virginia Cavalry and in a brief skirmish, George Washington Sandoe died. B= The 3rd number in the year of his birth. Clue 3 - 2751 - Socialite. Controversial wife of Horace Tabor, who was a silver mine owner in the days of the Colorado gold and silver booms of the 19th century. Despite wealth that allowed her to live a lifestyle that was beyond lavish, she died penniless and alone in Leadville, Colorado. She froze to death while living in a mine shack of the famous Matchless mine, which in its heyday produced $10,000 worth of silver ore per day. Elizabeth and Horace Tabor are the subject of an American opera, "The Ballad of Baby Doe". C=add together either the 1st 2 numbers in her birth year or the last two numbers in her birth year. Clue 4 - 8871191 - Artist. A portraitist, he studied under famed artist Thomas Sully in Philadelphia from 1814 to 1817 in an apprenticeship financed by statesman Henry Clay. Painted well known subjects such as Henry Clay, Dr. Benjamin Dudley and Zachary Taylor. One portrait of President Taylor crafted by Bush is now displayed in the White House Collection in Washington. D=number of words in the inscription on the bottom (line number 7) Dudley's on there as is Joseph. Clue 5 - 10756287 - World War I Victoria Cross Recipient. E=his birth day is two figures what is the first number Aug. XX, 1896. Clue 6 - 8237 - American motion picture actor of the 1930s and 40s. Appeared in the 1937 musical comedy "Something to Sing About," among many other popular films of the era. F= under his name and over the numbers is a two word phrase. F is the number of letters in the second word. Have fun with this one. I'm not going to post a clue or a hint.
