Carthage Cemetery is on the south side of HWY 380 approximately 12 1/2 miles east of I25 at Socorro, NM. The cemetery itself has no sign but there is a Carthage Historical Marker Sign on the same side of HWY 380 as the cemetery. If you look closely, you can see the cemetery when standing by the sign. You can enter the cemetery by going through the gate just west of the sign at the bottom of the hill. Driving Location submitted by Mike. Carthage was a Coal Mining town in the mid 1800's. This town was abandoned and the cemetery is in poor condition.
