Geocache Description:

 

Please be respectuful of this place.  It is the City of Vergennes oldest cemetary circa 1790.  The cemetary is open during the day light hours but the cache can be located anytime.

This should be a quick find.  Bring your own pencil.

The key box has been muggles three times so I have replaced it with a keybox of another kind. Same location. It is NOT under the bush. I noticed there was a little poison ivy under there so be careful.

 

I have passed this cemetary many times and have wanted to put a cache here.  It is rich in history. It was not until recently that it was accessable to the public.

Vergennes Burial Grounds

This is an interesting place.  It had been maintained by the Vergennes Congregational Church for many years through a trust fund.  After some research by a local resident, Susan Ferland, it was determined to belong to the City of Vergennes. The Ciry of Vergennes has taken over the maintenance and have put a new fence around it with a gate that makes it accessable to the public during daylight hours.  Many of the founding fathers are buried there.  To find more information on who is bured there go to www.findagrave.com.
