Pentecostal - abandoned

This page was last modified:

On Private property. Located between 16 and 17 Roads South of P Road, NW of Fruita. I checked Google maps. There are several farms located in the area but I couldn't see any specific grave sites, however perhaps they are behind the houses. 6/2022 kms *interview with Marie T. the cemetery was located on the 'Bernal' property at the base of a hill. [The 'Bernal' property was on 16 Rd near Q Rd?]

I located this obituary/death notice - 29 Oct 1931, Daily Sentinel - Antoni Cordova "Burial will be in the Loma cemetery." I located his grave site at the Orchard Mesa Cemetery, with a handmade flat stone. Was he perhaps buried at the Pentecostal cemetery and later moved?

The 1985 edition of 'Cemeteries of Colorado' lists this cemetery on 'P' Rd on Richter's property. (NE 1/4, Sec 19, T2N, R2W, Ute P.M.). This description places the cemetery at the corner of 17 Rd and P Rd. on the south side of 'P" Rd. There are no hills or rises in the area.
