Geocache Description:

The 1st cemetery in Quincy was located on the south part of a block once called "Jefferson Square". The cemetery was used for nine years (1826-1835). In 1835 the bodies were extracted and placed in a new cemetery at 24th and Maine. However, any graves that were not identifiable were left at "Jefferson Square". The Adam's County Courthouse now stands on The Square.

Cache is a park and grab. You won't have to go on the grass. This area has large muggle traffic.
