Geocache Description:

SH ~ Middle Run Cemetery




The “SH” in the cache name above signifies a Spirit Hunt, a project by the Miami Valley Geocachers to distinguish those caches that are set in cemeteries or memorial gardens. This cache is part of that series created by MVG members to highlight cemeteries in the area. Please be respectful of the area. Cache should NOT be done after sunset.

This cemetery is located next to the Middle Run Predestinarian Baptist Church. The church dates from the late 18th century and was located on high ground to scout for Indians. In early days the church met only once a month. Being a member of the Baptist Association, members would travel monthly to different Baptist Churches to meet. In days of persecution this was for protection sake. During pioneer days it was still the practice so as to share ministers more easily. [Most of this information was collected on-line; if anyone has additional details, I'd be glad to add them here.]

Cache has room for trades. Starts out with a FTF pin, a yellow jeep TB, and other goodies.
Please search with care - I saw SEVERAL birds nests with eggs as I searched for a hiding spot.
