This is a small-to-medium sized family cemetery with approximately 50 graves, and is still in gradual use, with the latest burials in 2020 and 2022. It is bounded by a 4-feet-high chain-link fence of about 70 x 110 feet. It seems to be in use for the family and descendants of Jose Maximo Perez (1840-about 1890) and Romana Leal (1838-1921), but also for other relatives and local families. The cemetery is on private land, although it appears to be open to visitors to come and go. Directions: From the nearby town of Concepcion, drive west on FM-716 for about a mile, turn left (south) onto gravel-surfaced County Road 245 for another mile. Turn right (west) onto a gravel unnamed county road for about one-third mile to a closed-but-unlocked cattle gate (please use ranch rules: leave the gate in the position found, and respect the surrounding property). Then, continue west for about one-quarter mile to a fork; take right fork (to the north) about 140 yards to cemetery.
