As the first World War was coming to an end La Influenza Espanola or The Spanish Flu Epidemic of 1918-1919 started, killing some 20 million people world wide, half a million in the United States alone, several thousands in New Mexico and hundreds in Taos County. Only the Black Death of the middle ages was more deadly than the Spanish Influenza of 1918-1919. In the spring of 1919, The Spanish Influenza Virus vanished as suddenly as it had appeared. Researchers have never been able to identify the lethal strain and no one knows where or how it started or if it still exists.

Several hundred people died in Taos County, sometimes two or three people in the same house. As a result, on the 11th day of Oct. ober 1918 it was ordered that all schools, theaters, and churches be closed, it was prohibited to attend the Velorios of persons that died due to the influenza, it was also forbidden for more than five persons to gather as a group. The deceased were to be buried as soon as possible.

Dr. Ira Allison, County [Taos] Doctor reports that in Ranchos and Talpa about 100 people are sick with the "Contagiosa Influenza; se diceque la invasion de tal enfermedad en lugares se debe a la atendencia alos Velorios de personas que han muerto de esa enfermedad." 25Oct. 1918 La Revista De Taos.

The Taos County Newspaper La Revista De Taos in 1918 published several lists of persons that died but cautioned that because so many had died it had not been possible to keep an accurate count or listing of all the people that died. The paper informed its readers that because of the illness of the staff and the death of Jose E. VALDES, the newspaper's secretario y manejador de imprenta they had not being able to publish the paper. The paper in its 23 Nov. 1918 edition tells people that they have received about 100 "Correspondencias de Defunciones" from their subscribors and friends but that it is impossible to publish them in any great detail so they will publish a brief notice of the deceased.

I was not able to locate La Revista De Taos for the year 1919, when the influenza is reported to have ended; thus there is no listing of any of the deaths in 1919.

Following are some of the people reported as having died due to the influenza:
