This is the first KC area virtual cache! There is no actual cache
container or log book (other than the virtual log book on this web
site). The location at the above coordinates are for “The Elijah
Cornell Chase House Circa 1869. The Oldest Continuous Residence in
Johnson County Kansas”.
There is a plaque on the home from “The Daughters of the American
Colonists”. Please note: this is still an occupied private
residence, not a museum to tour or anything like that. I talked to
the owners son and he showed me some pictures and gave me a very
brief outside tour and indicated that the owner loves to share the
history with people, but please respect their privacy. The house
can be enjoyed from the view from the street. I found this site one
day and since it’s a bit of rare local history, wanted to share it
with you. The object is to note what construction material the home
is made of. This is a nine year old Virtual Cache that was placed
before the rules that I disagree to, but: "Virtual caches can only
be logged if you have actually been to the cache's location. I/we
are currently deleting logs by cachers who have clearly not been to
this cache location as instructed by Groundspeak."
