Longs Cemetery
Longs Cemetery
*Located 6 miles east and 1 mile south of Dora, New Mexico.  The cemetery is across the road from the abandoned Longs Baptist Church.  Set back a considerable distance from the road, the community planned, at one time, to build the church at the front of the lot, leaving the eastern portion for burials.  A school building across the road was added on to and this became the church, leaving the western end of the burial plot to be the newer section of the cemetery.

*The church and cemetery were named for the father and mother of Oscar Long and Mrs. J. W. (Donna) Harcrowe.  The Long family had a store and Post Office in the front of their home.  The old homesite is 1/2 mile north of the cemetery.


This list is taken from the personal work of Kenneth Victor, done in February 1994, and used here with his permission.    Names, dates or notes showing an (*) are from the project records of the El Portal chapter of the D.A.R, read by Dona Stone and Mrs. Frank Kelt, accompanied by Mr. L. A. Pruett, who gave many names for unmarked graves.
