Resting in Peace #2--
Total of 2 boxes
Goshen Cemetery, Lebanon, CT
Rated: Easy

Some of the finest examples of the early stone carving unique to eastern Connecticut can be found in the old burying grounds of Lebanon. The best work of Lebanon carver John Huntington can be seen here, as well as impressive stones by the Bozrah Devil, Obadiah Wheeler, the Mannings, L. Kimball, Upswept-Wing Carver and Benjamin Collins. There are also two sand stones carved by John Isham.

Directions: The Lebanon Town Hall is located at the junction of Routes 87 and 207. Proceed west on Route 207 for 3.4 miles (passing the Exeter Cemetery). Turn left onto Route 16 and travel 0.7 miles. Turn left onto Goshen Hill Road and travel 1.5 miles. Turn right onto McCall Road and go 0.5 miles, watching for the sign for the Goshen Congregational Church at the corner of Church Street. Turn left onto Church Street and the cemetery is on the left.

#1 Won't You Give Me Some Flowers While I'm Living?

Enter Goshen Cemetery at the far right entrance. You can park in the gate entrance. You will see a gravestone with the name Sherman on your right as you walk toward the back wall. Go to the right corner where there is a large tree. With the tree at your back, go six paces (left foot only) along the same back wall. There you'll see two trees behind the wall. The letterbox you are seeking is on the top between the two trees, covered with a flat rock on the wall. Please stamp in and hide well. Thank you.

#2 My Furry Dependable Visitors

From the far right entrance of the Goshen Cemetery, passing Sherman on your right, walk straight to the back wall. Turn left and you'll see two trees in front of the wall. Just a short way past them, on the other side of the wall is a two sister, two-tiered tree. Between the tree and the top back edge of the wall lies box #2, covered with a flat rock. Please stamp in and re-hide well. Thank you.
