Geocache Description:

You are looking for a waterproof match container wrapped in camo. No Night hunting! Daytime Only!
There is barbed wire around the cemetery so just keep an eye out for it. There is cattle that graze down the road. The wire is to help keep cattle out.

Welcome to Farnsworth Cemetery. (my first hide)

As you walk up the to gate you will see that it is chained. There is Not a lock just remove the chain from around the gate and the gate will open with a little help. When leaving PLEASE REMEMBER TO CLOSE TO GATE AND PUT THE CHAIN LIKE IT WAS WHEN YOU GOT THERE! Thanks!

I don't have alot of information about Farnsworth. I have sent a email to my cousin about Farnsworth history. As I get the info I will add it.

Farnsworth was an old coal mining town. The only thing left is the Cemetery.

My Family settled in Farnsworth when my great great great Grandfather came from Cornwall, England.(find his stone and your near the Cache) Feel free to add your pictures.
