Thanks David for posting the photos for those interested. This was a collaborative effort of Ed Vernon and myself following a tidbit of info in an
old book by Tom?s Robertson. Ed followed up by meeting a source at his booksigning who gave us a name in La Paz for more info on this site. To be
continued...

What do we know about the site? I am just back from a trip to New Mexico to photograph mission and community churches from the 17th to early 19th
centuries. Also included a stop in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua and El Paso. Took over 500 photos, including a bunch of petroglyphs near Albuquerque. I am
attaching a shot of N.S. de Guadalupe, a Franciscan mission established in 1659. Now a part of Ciudad Juarez.
