Geocache Description:

We wanted to place a cache on this rare day of calendar alignment. Day light only please. This camoed container is large enough for some trade items.

You will need to use the information on the stones mentioned to find the needed coordinates. This is a small cemetery so not much walking is required. There are 3 distinct sections in this cemetery. Do not get them confused or you will have a hard time. I don't think that will be possible and you will see why when you get there. The clues will involve the number 12 since this was hidden on 12-12-12.
 The listed coordinates will take you to a tall monument in the middle of the cemetery.
Coordinates for the cache are N41 AB.CDE W079 FG.HIJ
 To find AB go to the large section close to the road. Stand looking at the front of the stones with your right side facing the road. Row number 1 is the first row of standing stones.  Walk to the 12th row. Find Emma's birth month. That is the answer to AB.
 To find C go to the large monument. Find the stone closest to it with 12 letters in the name. The last number in the year of birth is the answer to C.
 To find DE go back to the large section by the road. Go to the very last stone (Conti). Facing the back of the stones this time go to the 12th row. Find Nicola's birth year. The last two numbers are DE.
 While you are here, collect IJ. Using the first row of standing stones in this section find the 12th name from the left. How old was she when she died? This is IJ.
 Now go to the single row of stones. Walk to the 12th one from the road. H is the second number in all of the years listed.
 Last you will find FG. This clue will not involve the number 12 because when I got here I knew these precious ones had to be mentioned. Go to the very end of the single row. There are 4 little stones here. Add 10 to the last two digits in the year on Anita's stone. This number is FG.
  Now that you have all the numbers go get the cache!
