Marcia Cemetery, Otero County, New Mexico

Marcia Cemetery,
Otero County, New Mexico

Directions from Cloudcroft, NM - Go 2 miles south on NM 130 and turn onto Sunspot Highway (6465). After going about 8 miles turn left onto Forest Road 764, Upper Rio Peñasco Road. In 2 1/2 miles to private land the cemetery will be on a knoll to the left and it is fenced in. This seems to be a closed cemetery. It is also known as the Pioneer Cemetery. Grave markers are very weathered. (Link to map)
