Geocache Description:

This is a two part virtual cache.

Less than 500 ft. from car to cache

My great-great grandfather, Col. Adin Lowe, died at the Battle of Fredericktown while fighting for the Rebel grey. To get credit for this cache I would like for you to email me the date on the Confederate memorial at N 37 32.864, W 90 17.687. The other date you need to email me is the date Col. Lowe died. Follow the main cache coordinates to find his gravesite. Fredericktown is a pretty town with a lot of beautiful places to see in the surrounding countryside. A banana/marshmallow milkshake from the Dairy Bar (I think that's the name of it) about two blocks south of the courthouse is worth the trip to Fredericktown alone.

I hope you enjoy this simple virtual cache.
