This is a micro cache so no room for any swag. Bring your own writing implement.
A medium cemetery in Ontario County. No night caching please. Do not upset or disturb any markers or headstones. You do not need to move or touch any of them to collect the information needed. Gentle respect for the occupants is expected. Please don't bring animals or allow small children to run about. If you have your children with you, by all means have them help collect the information you need and use this as a learning experience for them about proper cemetery behavior.
Here is a cemetery cache with a little work involved. You have to locate certain headstones and use the dates to calculate the final cache location. When you have a date such as 1/1/2016 add the zero in the day field to yield the needed number (e.g. 1012016).
Find the following stones and make note of the dates of death listed.
From the coordinates, look southwest. All markers are in this area. If you reach a ‘road’ between sections, don’t cross. Stay inside sections E & F. This puzzle may is harder than some in the series as you’ll have fewer clues to locate the needed information.
Find the navy veteran with “Psalm 119:105” inscribed on his marker
Find a “Tec 5 US Army” from WWII with initials E.S.
Find Tammy, Michele, Aimee, and Jesse on a marker. On the opposite side who is on the right?
Sum up the dates and subtract 7234381 to determine Latitude for the cache location
Find a metal marker for Arthur & Letha Rogers. Who is very nearby?
Find Lester Heatherly. Who is very nearby?
Find Richard and Mary Ellen Nielson. Who is very nearby?
Sum up the dates and subtract 13541342 to determine Longitude for the cache location which is a short drive (1/4 mile) away.
