Geocache Description:


Minnesota Spirit Quest - MnSQ: Kasota Hill Cemetery

The cache is not located near a grave... Please be respectful and cache in, trash out. Also, please only search for cache during daylight hours.

At the posted coordinates, you should look for the gravesite of Dwight Marston (or Marsden) Hanson. I was not able to find out a great deal about Dwight's military service, but he was a Private First Class in the US Army during World War II. Dwight was originally from a farm near Stanchfield Isanti Co., Minnesota and enlisted on July 20th, 1942. He was discharged at the end of the war on November 21, 1945. He served over 3 years during the majority of the US involvement in WWII, which spanned December 7th, 1941 to August 14, 1945. After the war Dwight worked for the Chicago and North Western Railroad for almost 30 years.

On this gravestone, he was born in the year 19XX. Consider this AB.

Then:

N44 17.(369+AB)

W093 57.(460+AB)

This cache is also placed in honor of MasterSergeantUSMC, who has hidden the majority of the Spirit Quest caches in South Central Minnesota. Thanks for all the great caches!
