This cemetery is east of I-25, in the village of Polvadera (Socorro County) New Mexico. It is located between the highway and the old road.
There are many graves that are marked only with wooden crosses or large stones and many that are unmarked. Many of the crosses or stones
have nothing on them to indicate who is buried in the grave. Credit Source: Compiler Mary Brewer, 1976
