HBUSA started in 2018 with 204 geocaches published in Michigan. This year we hope to surpass 250 caches and events to celebrate America’s semiquincentennial! This is #44 in a series about the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
Planter and lawyer Edward Rutledge of South Carolina was the youngest man to sign the Declaration at the age of 26. Rutledge was captured and imprisoned by the British in 1780 but released the next year in a prisoner exchange. He went on to become governor of his home state.
