Geocache Description:


On September 29th, 1838, William Robinson purchased the Unicorn Inn in Stockport, England and a short while later, his oldest son George brewed the first batch of Robinsons Ale and Robinsons Brewery was born. Fast forward a few decades and tragedy hits their ancestors in America... At the posted coordinates, you will find an interesting and sad set of six gravestones that marks the start of a short multi-cache. You will need some information located here in order to obtain the coordinates to the final a short distance away. With all of them, use the year of their death.

A. Starting with the Southern-most headstone of little Ruby: Add 6 to the last digit.

B. Next we go to Clarie: Subtract 7 from the last two digits.

C. Then to Ernest: Add 4 to the ones place.

D. And to Nettie: Divide the last two digits by 7.

E. Then to Emmer: Multiply the last two digits by 3 and then divide by 12.

F. And finally to Herman Ellis: Divide the last two digits by 17 and add 1.

N 33 04.ABC

W 096 44.DEF

Take some time and look around at the other gravestones in the area, and respect the deceased of this well-kept cemetery.
