Around the state - again

We took a trip to northern New Mexico and found some of the more elusive cemeteries.  Our first stop was to Pecos where we thought there were 3 cemeteries.  Nope - only two.

Saint Anthony (new) in Pecos

There is also Saint Anthony (old) a few blocks east of the new cemetery but we could not locate it.

Next we went to Rowe which is a very small village but does have a Catholic church with mass twice a month.  There are two cemeteries here.

Rowe Cemetery

Sagrada Familia, Rowe

To the west of I-25, and south of Las Vegas is Ojitos Frios, another tiny village about 10 miles from anything.

And we even found a lone grave a few miles from Ojitos Frios on CR A20

Travelling further south on I-25 we came to La Manga where the cemetery surrounds a tiny church named Santo Nino de Atocha

Just a few miles further south is Tecolote.  We were looking for fair size site but sure where.  We turned south and west off the freeway and found the cemetery!  But it was the wrong one.  So we found another new one and didn't find the one we were looking for.

Working on the name for this church.  There are only a few older stones in churchyard.

Continuing south, but still before Glorieta, is the tiny village of Bernal.  Another Catholic church and churchyard cemetery with many burials.

We did stop in Raton to verify three cemeteries that are fairly large and documented.

                                                           Mt Calvary on west side of city

                                                         Fairmont on the north side of city

                                         Fairview on east side and the oldest cemetery (also
                                           known as Old Raton Cemetery)
