The 59th in the Rest 'n Peace - Centre County cemetery series brings you near to the location of a lost family burial plot. We know of its existence from memoirs of some of Centre counties earliest residents, predominantly of John Blair Linn (1831-1899, author of History of Centre and Clinton Counties, Pennsylvania. L. H. Everts, 1883). At the waypoint on the cache page is a memorial plaque for the Standford family who were killed by incited Native Americans near their log home, which still stands today just behind the plaque. No information concerning their exact burial rites, markers, or exact location survives, other than that it was near this homesite, for as soon after they were interred many survivors fled the area in haste.
Please note that the house and plaque are both recorded as historic sites, but this is still private land and a private residence.
To find the cache travel just a bit SE down Rimmey road to the beginning of the Clearwater Conservancy land easement that surrounds Rhoneymeade. The cache is not at Rhoneymeade, so you need not worry about muggles when finding it, and there is a small pull-off for 1-2 cars right by the cache site. As with many Clearwater Conservancy sites, there is a walking trail that begins near the cache and will take you along the property edge to enjoy the woodlands and field edges. The cache doesn't require this though, and should be a quick find for kids and adults alike.
Although this cache is not at the actual burial site (or maybe it is?) please be respectful when seeking this. Clearwater Conservatory easments are open to any and every one to enjoy, so please CITO any litter should you find any.
