Geocache Description:

Located in a wooded area near a new apartment complex.

This is my first in a multi-cache series I plan to start exploring old abandoned cemetaries. For each one in the series you will need to explore the cemetary to gain answers for the coordinates to the cache.

Morris Cemetary is located near a large new shopping, dining and apartment area. There are about a 1/2 dozen stones with information dating back to 1842, most broken and falling apart.

You will want to park at 35 48.411, 78 49.338 which is at the Bristol apartments dog and kids' park. It's a short walk from there in the woods.

Okay, on to the cache.
Latitude: 35 48.XXY
Longitude 78 49.ABB

XX = last two digits of the year Benjamin Jones was born
Y = Willie Morris death(year) - Willie Morris(birth) +2
A = Numeric month of the date Hubert Morris was born
BB = Last two digits of the year Aqillie Jones was born + 1

The cache is a camo'd prescription bottle with a few trinkets and a log. Bring your own writing stick. I hope you enjoy the adventure.

As a bonus (not needed for log) tell me the very prophetic saying on Hubert Morris' stone.
