Geocache Description:


This is a small country cemetery with graves of people including soldiers in the War of 1812 and Civil wars. This is a straightforward multi with two stages to acertain the North and West coordinates for the final container. Please be respectful of the area, and observe their rules and posted hours which are dawn to dusk.

The posted coordinates will take you to William's grave. Use his stone to get the North coords to the final as follows:

N40 48.ABC

A=number of letters in his wife’s name

B=last digit of the year William's wife was born

C=last digit in the year William's wife died

 

Stage 2 location is James J.'s grave stone. Use his stone to get the West coords to the final as follows:

W83 47.DEF

D=Last digit of the number of days (D)

E= The day of the month James J. died minus 1

F= last digit of the year he died

 

If you don’t find it, please post a DNF log. That way I know people are looking, but not finding it. If you find that the log needs replaced, please upload a picture of the old log for posterity sake. Throw-downs are not permitted.
