This series of caches highlights the 12 historical neighborhoods of the Pleasant Grove.
"Little Denmark began with a few dugouts, progressing until near 1900 when there stood rows of neatly-kept and picket-fenced, two-room houses, most with lean-tos at the back. Little Denmark Street, now 100 North, west from the cemetery, remained very much the same into the mid 1900s, with the exception of an occasional larger, later home. Until the late 1930s the long residential top-half of Little Denmark Street was lined on both sides with poplars, and the lower farmland half was lined with wild roses and hollyhocks.
Because many of the Scandinavians were artisans, making their living by their skills, they purchased less ground to farm; thus, they built closer than usual on small plots around and below the cemetery. This close living pattern assured continued frequent association that supported and extended their Old World ways. A few were farmers who drove to and from their farmlands in The North Fields."
