Santo Nino Cemetery (Holy Child Cemetery) is also known as Gobernador Cemetery or Gobernador Community Cemetery. The gate to the cemetery is about 17 miles east of the San Juan / Rio Arriba County line and right across the hwy. from a green oil tank. The cemetery is located about 50 yards back off the road and can barely be seen on the southside of Hwy. 64. and does set behind a local homestead that can be seen from the road. One will have to open a gate right off the highway to drive down to the cemetery. Gobernador (Governor), now an abandoned "barren ghost town" was a small unincorporated community developed by the Conoco-Philips Company for the purpose of exploration and drilling for natural gas and oil. The community was active from January 1993 to August 2007.
