Geocache Description:

This site commemorates one of the more grisly events in early Austin history.

The monument at this site used to be further east just off 51st street at Old Manor Road. I remember Boy Scout hikes that ended at the monument to prove that the tale that had been related as we walked along the creek was indeed true. I'm glad that when development forced the city to move the monument that it was placed in a more prominent and accessible spot.

After visiting this cache, a google search for the name on the monument will provide several links where you can read about the entire gruesome episode.

This is a virtual cache. After you have visited the site please email me the birthplace of the person to whom this marker is dedicated.

Please do not put this information in your log even if it is encrypted!

Please be sure to log your visit here also. Thank you!
