Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the published coordinates, but they might be a useful place to start.
 
This is the 13th mystery cache in the Famous Berkshire Resident series.

 

Person X was not born in Berkshire, but did spend their last years in the county.  Person X is probably most famous for doing time in prison for 4 years during the 1970s.  At the same time as this incarceration, Person X was able to study medicine but did so outside of prison - how strange!  Person X has two daughters, who both went into the same career.  To honour Person X, a blue plaque was unveiled in 2013 in their county of birth.

 

The cache can be found at N 51 23.ABC W 000 40.DEF where:

A = Died in 197A

B = Month of birth of Person X + 2

C = Number of letters in oldest daughter's name + 1

D = Month of birth of youngest daughter

E = Number of letters in landlord's surname + 2

F = Age when died - 22
