“INDIANA
SPIRIT QUEST”
The Indiana Spirit Quest series of
geocaches will take you to a number of historic cemeteries
built by Hoosier Pioneers. In just a year and a half, the quest has
grown to over two hundred seventy caches hidden in twenty-seven
Indiana counties, and two Ohio counties, and the hiders have grown
to ten cacher teams, nine of which of which are comprised of
Dogs and their Humans. Over 480 cacher
teams have logged over 5,400 finds. One cache machine found 102 ISQ
caches in a single day (daylight hours only).

INDIANA
SPIRIT QUEST #275
"From Chicamaugua to Quang Tri"
Welcome to Flint Cemetery, Jackson Township,
Steuben County.
Listen to what the Shadow says:
This is a mid-size
cemetery, old and still growing. The oldest part is to the north,
with expansion southward. The earliest marker I saw was from 1842.
The area has been well maintained. The nearby community of Flint is
small. I understand it's a very old town. It appears so by looking
at some of the building designs.
I've located veterans
graves here from the Civil War through Vietnam. Some look to have
interesting backgrounds.
There is a very nice
antique outhouse here that is inhabited by groundhogs. If you don't
need to go, no need to go inside... --SHADOW
This cache is dedicated to to two American
KIA's, who gave their all for their country, 105 years
apart.
