Geocache Description:


Welcome to Oak Hill Cemetery!


There is no physical cache at the posted coordinates. However, you will need to visit them in order to determine the location of the final container. In front of you stands an oxidized copper/bronze plaque framed by brickwork and beginning with the words "Oak Hill Cemetery Incorporated." Use this information to calculate the numerical values for letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J. Please be respectful of the area as neither stage is located near any of the gravesites and sign the log with initials only in order to conserve space. Enjoy!

A = The number of trustees with the last name Kruse
B = The number of letters in H. Kandle's middle name
C = The last digit of the second date on the plaque
D = The last digit of the first date on the plaque
E = The third digit of the second date on the plaque
F = The number of letters in Martha's last name minus the number of letters in Henry's last name
G = The first digit of the first date on the plaque plus the first digit of the second date on the plaque
H = The number of letters in the last word/name on the plaque minus one
I = The numerical value correlating to the first letter of Bertha's last name
J = The number of times the letter Z appears on the plaque

Checksum: A + B + C + D + E = 15; F + G + H + I + J = 13
