Sir William Mackenzie (1849 -1923) and his wife Margaret are buried at the posted coordinates. He was knighted Jan. 1, 1911 primarily for his role in the development of western Canada through railway construction.
(The Mackenzie homestead (circa 1888) together with an historical plaque is located near the main intersection of Kirkfield.)
To find the location of the cache you will need to gather information contained on gravestones in very close proximity to the posted coordinates.
Although the cache contains a log you will need to bring a pen to sign it.
For the FTF there is a $5.00 note together with a set of used Canada stamps (Scott # 311- #314).
