Geocache Description:


This is another simple two stage multi-cache and another in my "Church in the Wildwood Series" or "CitWW:", which may be a little challenging to figure, find or, who knows, maybe both. You might call these ones the 'abridged' versions!!! Patience, you'll see... Mwhahahaha!
Small country cemeteries are absolutely amazing to me! Visiting them, is like stepping back into another time.


Historically...

Mount Pleasant Mission is located at 7361 4th Line (historically located in old "Peel Township" Concession 5 Lots 16-17), Mapleton Township, Wellington County. The cemetery is registered and both closed and abandoned. The stones have been gathered into a cairn.
It is thought that some of these residents may have been people from the United States that escaped slavery in the early 1800's. This cemetery is maintained by the Mount Pleasant Mission of Toronto. It was originally sanctioned by the American Abolition Society circa 1843 - 1853. For more information on the black settlers from this area research the "Queen's Bush Settlement".

Puzzl-ingly...

Behind the headstone cairn in the center, there is a broken headstone leaning back against the front row of stones. The top of this stone reads "who died". There is a month, a day and a year. The year is very hard to read, so please enter the month and day into the checker in the form "MM-DD" (numbers).
(no quotes and don't forget the dash).

Parking-ly...

Parking at the cemetery and the final, will be at road side, so please do so carefully, thoughtfully, and certainly safely.
