Photographs of these headstones were donated to the Colorado Tombstone Photo Project: http://www.usgwarchives.net/co/costones.htm Valdez Cemetery is located 6 miles east of Walsenburg on the north side of Colorado Highway 10 in SW 1/4 of Sec 28, T27S, R65W, 6th PM. In addition to the names listed here there are about 40 unmarked graves. This has always been the Valdez cemetery but someone made the gates that say Cordova - Valdez because his family of Cordova are buried here.
