“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 over a year and a half, the quest has grown to over four hundred caches hidden in over forty Indiana counties, and Ohio and Michigan and the hiders have grown to over twenty cacher teams, most of which of which are comprised of Dogs and their Humans. Over 900 cacher teams have logged over 10,500 finds. One cache machine found 102 ISQ caches in a single day (daylight hours only).

INDIANA SPIRIT QUEST #420

"PLUM CRAZY"

Plum Crazy

Welcome to Prairie Grove Cemetery on Old Trail Road in Waynedale (Wayne Township, Allen County, Indiana). There is a nice historic Church here as well as a wonderful historic Bippy. It's obvious that this place started out as a small Church yard burial ground and really grew! Earliest interrment was in 1834. There are a number of Viet Nam Veterans buried here, including one who is on the Wall.


SarahConnett (1793 - 1878) was the daughter of Samuel Mansfield, who served in the 3rd Maryland Regiment during the Revolutionary War.


John Leslie Roberts was killed by an enemy explosive device in Quang Nam Province on July 6, 1968. He was Regular Army, rated as a vehicle Repairman.
