Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the listed coordinates. Rather, the listed coordinates will bring you to a major landmark on top of a ridge in Sandy Springs with parking nearby for a church and for a historic cemetery.

Please visit this cemetery in daylight only. You need not move or disturb anything in this cemetery to find this cache. But you will have a couple of tasks that you must complete to find this cache:

First you must locate the grave stone of a person who was born on July 16,1943 and died February 4, 1944. It's located on the north side of Mt. Vernon Road, near a large Loblolly pine tree. Carefully note the coordinates of this grave stone.

Now, walking in generally a westerly direction, locate the grave stone of another young child who was born in 1938 and died in 1939. Carefully note the coordinates of this spot.

Subtract .466 minutes from the latitude coordinates of your first stop - the result is the latitude coordinates of the cache. Subtract .175 minutes from the longitude coordinates of your second stop - this sum is the longitude coordinates of the cache.

Bring your own pen or pencil to sign the log.

An interesting historic cemetery, I believe - good luck with your search.
