Geocache Description:


Gone But Not Forgotten
Mahomet Cemetery

This cemetery, with interments dating back to the 1850's, became a community graveyard for the Sycamore Springs and Mahomet rural communities. In 1909 J. W. Williams and J. W. and Nellie Greer deeded the cemetery property to the community of Mahomet. Among the hundreds of people buried here are many of the area's pioneer settlers and their descendants and veterans of wars ranging from the Mexican War (1846-1848) to the Vietnam War. Mahomet Cemetery remains active and is maintained by an association of decendants of people buried here.

As for the cache container, you're looking for a pill bottle about eye level near a William Williams 1833-1884.
