Moreno Cemetery

I found an old cemetery in Caldwell county that the land has just been
cleared. It only has three stones and someone has put 5 white crosses there.
so here it is:

Cemetery is on County Road 142 about half a mile from Highway 21 in Caldwell County.

MORENO carved on a tree at the entrance, so I suppose this is the name of the
cemetery. This land has just been cleared and there is a big pile of brush,
which could possibly have some clues as to more graves here. The graves found
are all very spread out over the area so I believe there could be more graves
here that are not marked.

A concrete fence area with two graves in it, very overgrown.

ESRANIDADE     (temp marker hared to read) Died Marzo  aged 73
FNATIVIDAD  MORENO     (at bottom of cross) Fallecio 2-22-1946
Above is a concrete cross enclosed in area with above temp marker, also a
plastic wreath with DAD in flowers and a wreath of plastic pine needles hung
on cross, with thorn bushes all grown into it.

Found left side of graveyard broken and leaning against a cut down tree:
Senorita Martina   (only half of stone with name there)

Middle of cemetery:
Concrete cross     RECU ERDO AMI MADRE
Next to this concrete cross in a row are 4 white crosses and then one
more white cross over to the side.
