Geocache Description:


After completing numerous pioneer cemetery-based caches, one thing becomes very clear: young people often came too soon to an end.  This simple multi is dedicated to those children who lost their lives, and their parents and family who had to endure the associated sorrow.

 

The final for his cache is located at:

N 44° 05.9AB   W 080° 32.6CD

 

The listed co-ordinates will take you to Beatrice's gravestone...part one of the puzzle.

Find flat marker for "Beatrice".  (N 44° 05.953 W 080 32.611)  Determine her age of death.  This is "A".

Find the old white stone that lists John, Isabella, and Rodger's deaths.  How old was Isabella at her time of death?  This number minus 1 is "B".

Find the Sturrock family stone.  Looking at the stone determine the number of deaths immediate family the father had to endure during his life.  Take this number, and subtract 3.  This is "C".

Near Beatrice's stone, find the Smith family marker.  How old was Roy when his parents lost him?  This number minus 4 will give you "D".

 

Sadly, this is but a handful of young deaths at the Esplin cemetery...
