San Vicente Crossing Cemetery

San Vicente

GPS Coords: 29.132622, -103.022555

There are probably less than 30 graves at this location and there are no legible stones remaining.

The San Vicente Crossing cemetery is located 1000 feet north of where the access road crosses the dry creek bed and enters the Rio Grande River flood plain. This is also the location of the former village of San Vicente Crossing, which still contains traces of its former occupation. It should not be confused with San Vicente further north-east, which has yet another cemetery. The cemetery is located atop two low intersecting linear mounds of earth which form the shape of a natural cross. The graves, about 29 of them, consist of piles of stones, and are located on the eastern arm of the earthen cross.

I believe all the Ylearte surnames should be Yharte and I don't know where this information was obtained.
