Geocache Description:

***Congratulations!*** to Oldbarn on the First to Find. . .



When I was a young boy, I went with my father every Saturday to water and tend the Geraniums that were at the grave of my Grandfather. I never noticed that a nearby headstone marked the final resting place of my Great Grandfather Joseph. It wasn't until later in life that I made the discovery. This cache will take you to Oaklawn Cemetary in Ossian, Indiana. This is one of the best maintained cemetaries around.

The listed coordinates will take you to Grandpa Joe's headstone. To find the cache, solve the following:

Z = How many years did Joe's son Martin live?
To get the N Coords, XX = Z - 9
To get the W Coords, YY = Z + 17

The final coordinates of the cache are:
N 40 52.4XX W 85 09.8YY
