Geocache Description:


Our son's family moved to Ashley in August 2021. Since I plan to visit them regularly I can now place caches here. This cache is not at the posted coordinates. Solve the puzzle, find the cache. Thanks to Goldfinch for his help placing this geo art.

In the fall of 1881, L. M. Hutchinson arrived in the neighborhood of where Ashley now is. There were at that time but four families in the entire community—Daniel Robinault, Abram Shellenbarger, Charles Mark­ham and William Proctor. There was a small clearing on the Shellenbarger corners and that was about all. The railroad project of an earlier day was revived and the road was built through in 1884. James M. Ashley was the promotor and builder of the road, and so the place got its name—Ashley. What state did Ashley represent in the US House of Representatives? Use Certitude to get final coordinates and hint.
