Geocache Description:

The cache is a 6X8 "Turtle" box. It has the usual camo with the cache name on top. Cache has a FTF Turtle key chain, multi EMS patches, a few matchbox cars and a couple of small balls.

Cache is located on the Western edge of "Goverment Cemetery #1", moved here in the early 1940's. At the time of Lake Texoma being filled many cemeterys had to be moved to higher ground. This cemetery has a group of 24-26 slave graves moved from the Coffee Trading Post area North of this location. All graves were marked with plain stones without names. The edge of the cemetery was marked by Crepe Myrtles. While researching this area I rediscovered this small cemetery. In the future the undergrowth will be removed.
