Summary[edit]

Description
English: Title: Headstones at Chico Cemetery, a windswept country graveyard near Avondale in Pueblo County, Colorado

Physical description: 1 photograph : digital, tiff file, color.

Notes: The cemetery was first populated in the 1860s, as white families from war-torn mid-South states moved westward after the Civil War. Many of their children perished along the trail. The tiny farming community of Chico on the site disappeared as most of its male residents left for city jobs. One of the cemetery's informal caretakers, Don Robertson, told the Pueblo daily newspaper that people have suggested that the cemetery be beautified with trees and such. No, he says. "It's a prairie cemetery, it's a pioneer cemetery. We want to keep that flavor."; Forms part of: Gates Frontiers Fund Colorado Collection within the Carol M. Highsmith Archive.; Credit line: Gates Frontiers Fund Colorado Collection within the Carol M. Highsmith Archive, Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division.; Title, date and keywords based on information provided by the photographer.; Purchase; Carol M.
