From Interment.net website:

A homesteader, on finding this cemetery on his property, deeded it to the Catholic Church (Church of the Ascension) with the provision that burial sites in this cemetery would be available free of charge for those living near it. Approximately 60% of the discernable graves have some sort of a marker with a readable inscription.

It appears the earliest burial (death date) is 1902. The cemetery is still being used for burials. Information can also be obtained at Church of the Ascension, 2150 Raymac Rd SW, Albuquerque, NM. The telephone number is 505-877-8550.

There are approximately 500 graves in this cemetery.
