About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

On this land overlooking a branch of Tornillo Creek, along the Ore Road from Boquillas to Marathon, Max Ernst opened a store in 1898 to cater to all the miners and prospectors in the area. He built a one-room school near his store, and in 1903 succeeded in getting the post office moved from Boquillas to his store. By then the farming community he had founded was known as La Noria, or "the well". From about 1912 to 1920, revolution raged in Mexico and many Mexican families moved north of the Rio Grande River to avoid the bloodshed. Mexican raids across the border brought the U.S. military to defend the border, and the National Guard established a camp at La Noria, and other locations.

The La Noria cemetery contains 15 graves. It is now located inside Big Bend National Park.
