Marker text:
The name of the county of Doña Ana originates from Doña Ana Robledo (1604–1680) who died near here while fleeing south with other settlers during the 1680 Pueblo Revolt. She was buried below the peak that now bears her surname in the Robledo Mountains, so named in memory of her grandfather who was buried their in 1598.
