Geocache Description:

The cache is located on the outskirts of town in a wooded area. It's a small cache that isnt placed in an obvious spot but it shouldnt take long to find. The cache is located in Poor Farm Cemetery, an old cemetery made for the terminally ill in the early 1900s. http://www.genealogytrails.com/ill/tazewell/ceme/poorfarm.htm  **Considering that this geocache is located in a cemetery, please be respectful of property and do not visit this geocache at night!


The main road doesn't quite get you to the cache before it turns into a dirt/grass path. You can drive all the way up to the cache but if the ground is wet I'd recommend having a 4 wheel drive car or just park where the main road ends and hoof it from there. It's roughly 1/4th of a mile away from that point. The cache is located in a cemetery that is well out of the way of the rest of the town. It probably doesn't get visitors often, but the grounds appear to be taken care of as the grass was cut when this cache was placed.
