The Queen Cemetery is located in the Guadalupe Mountains of the Lincoln National Forrest. This is a remote, mountainous area that is in southern Eddy County, New Mexico. The road to and through this area was once a stage coach route to El Paso, TX. There use to be a stage stop in this area known as the Queen Stage Stop. The stage would stop here to rest the horses from the climb up the mountain and either rest the horses or change teams for the steep climb down into Dog Canyon and through the El Paso Gap. All that remains of this stage stop is a tall rock chimney. The people that ran this stopping off point were M.J. and E.G. Queen. They are buried in the Queen Cemetery.
