Geocache Description:

In Rose Hill Cemetery; nearly handicapped-accessible

This is a two-part virtual cache, taking you to the last resting places of two of the most well-known persons to hail from Bloomington.

The above coordinates point to the first well-known person you'll be meeting. You've no doubt heard of him; a movie of his life was made recently. Note his wife Clara's birth year, and then compute:
a) the year in which Clara turned 10 years old;
b) the year in which Clara saw her 73rd birthday.

To find the coordinates for the second prominent person, in place of the last three digits of the above coordinates, insert the last three digits of a) for the latitude, and of b) for the longitude, respectively. Thus if a) were the year 1872, and b) were the year 1935, the coordinates you'd want would be N 39°09.872', W 86°32.935'.

This second person is equally famous. To prove you've been to visit him, please e-mail me the last name of the couple interred next to him; their given names are Andrew and Jennie.
