Cemetery Pictures Background: Berino is a small settlement on NM 226,
one mile east of NM 478, and 19 miles south of Las Cruces. An old Hispanic
settlement which means "ford," and its located near the east bank of
the Rio Grande. A sister settlement is across the river and is also
named Berino. The name may also be related to "merino," a breed of sheep.
Reportedly, the settlement was once called Cottonwoods. The location
of the settlement has shifted over time to the old RR siding of Berino.
(Based on Robert Julyan The Place Names of New Mexico.) This small agricultural
community was originally known as Cottonwood and was on the Butterfield
Overland Mail Route. The settlement is located twenty miles south southeast
of Las Cruces near the east bank of the Rio Grande. Berino is said to
be an Indian word that means ford. The Berino Post Office was established
on September 3, 1902. Aurilla Tadlock was the first postmaster and received
the mail daily from the Railway Post Office (RPO) car on the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad.
