Geocache Description:

The Cemetery Queen strikes again with an off-set multi cache that starts in the Tucker Cemetery, Pasco County's oldest cemetery. The ammo can final is about half mile down the road (driving distance), a short but sandy walk from parking.



The coordinates will take you to the back of the Tucker Cemetery. There you'll find the marker of Sarah Tucker. Note the last digit in the year of her death. Use that digit=A to fill in the coordinates for the next stage, an ammo can in the nearby SWFWMD Upper Hillsborough WMA property.

28° 16.A70 82° 07.A2A

Sarah and Thomas Tucker settled in the area in 1842 and planted the area's first orange groves. There is another Tucker Cemetery in Hernando County on Tucker Hill dating from a bit later and another cache there.
Interesting that they only give the year of her birth, not the day and month. Wonder if they really didn't know? or just didn't put it on the marker?
