Alma Cemetery Directions: From the Glenwood post office as the primary point of reference, go north on US 180 for 4 miles, at which point the road crosses Mineral Creek over a concrete bridge. Shortly after crossing the bridge, go on a dirt road that turns off towards the east; travel for 1/2 mile to where another dirt road turns off to the north (left), crosses a cattle-guard, and curves around and up a small hill. This road goes for 1/2 mile to the gate of the cemetery, which is located on the flat top of the hill, overlooking the town of Alma. Specific Location: SE 1/4 NW 1/4 SW 1/4 Section 3 Township 11S Range 20W NMPM.
