Geocache Description:


This is a nice simple multi. The final is just a short walk away.

The Pioneer Cemetery was originally located to the east of Oshawa Harbour on property once owned by Lyman Gifford, a former mayer of Oshawa. Many of the original settlers and their families were buried there, including Benjamin Wilson, the first settler in this area. In **** the cemetery was transferred to city-owned land at Bonnie Brae Point. Unfortunately, when the move took place, Benjamin Wilson's tombstone disappeared and has not been recovered.
To find the final for this cache there is just a bit of math to do. Find the large plaque inside the fence at the posted coordinates.
The cache is located at:
N 43 51.ABC
W 78 49.DEF
 
 

Find the year this cemetery was moved from the original location. Subtract 151 from that year, then divide by 3.= ABC
 

Take the year the cemetery was transferred to the first trustees and subtract the year the cemetery was first used. Multiply by 8 and add 12 = DEF

The digital root of the last 3 numbers for both north and south coordinates is 5.
