La Cueva Mercantile, La Cueva,NM; July, 2009
La Cueva was established in 1851 by Vicente Romero who found the nearby Fort Union which provided both protection from the Apache and a market for his crops.
Legend has it that he named the village La Cueva because he lived in a nearby cave (Sp.: la cueva) while he was building his ranch house. He prospered and built a grist mill in the early 1860s.
