A BRIEF HISTORY OF 18051

in that place. Besides the hotel he carried on a trade of dyeing
and also kept a small store. St. Johns Lutheran Church was built
1835. By 1845 Fogelsville was a post village, at the junction of
Allentown and Millerstown roads. There were 16 homes, a store, a

So how do you figure out what ABC and XYZ are? Easy! In order to
find ABC you have to find another cache... GCYEQM - Down On The Corner. Written on the
lid of that cache is a three digit number, plug that into the
coordinates and you're halfway home. The more difficult part is
finding out what XYZ is! Good luck.
