This mashup uses Yahoo Maps which is superior for rural apps where high resolution satellite images are necessary for identification of land features.

As I was playing with the Map I moused over the point near the gate of the cemetery and low and behold the Lat Lon showed up on the left and I found by holding down the left button I could move the point and read off the exact Lat Lon location to about 5 decimal places which is about 1 meter resolution.
