Geocache Description:


spiromania #79


St. Michael's Cemetery is located along County Road 30 north of Kenyon. The cache is at a point outside of the cemetery and can be determined by projection from the posted coordinates at ABC feet in direction DAF degrees.

Although it's small, what is most impressive about this cemetery is the large number of veterans to honor here. Near the posted coordinates, about in the middle on the west side, you'll find markers for:


  • Adolf Charlson
    WW I, US Army
    Feb AB, 1894 - Jan 12 1973

  • William E Hanscom
    WWII, PFC USMC
    Korea, MSGT US Army
    Purple Heart
    Apr AB, 1926 - May 1, 2012

  • Robert M Brekke
    WW II, CPL US Army
    Oct FA or FD, 1921 - Mar 26, 2009

Note that Charlson and Hanscom were born on the same day of the month.
Two markers give a two-day difference in Brekke's birthday.
Also note that Brekke and his wife Maxine were born in the same year and were married for CC years
