This cache requires a bit of driving to get from start to finish but is only about 6.8 miles. Only a small amount of bushwacking is needed for the final cache.

Stage 1: N33 51.378 W84 54.232
Here you will find a very old cemetery that no longer has any headstones, and here you will be able to solve the following:
B = The number of letters in the 4th word on the sign. (the only word on that line)
C = The number of letters in the last word on the sign minus 8.

Stage 2: N33 54.018 W84 52.542
Here you will find a cemetery with many prominent people from Paulding County's history, including two brothers that fought in the War of 1812. From these two headstones you will be able to solve the following:
A = The last digit of the year Whitmill died.
D = The second digit of the year that William died.
E = William was the ____ clerk of Pumpkinville Bapt. Church.

A+B+C+D+E=20 (Just a check)
