Sotelo Cemetery
is an old family cemetery located in Pleasanton, Atascosa County, Texas.
If you are traveling from San Antonio, take 1-37 South
towards Corpus Christi. Take the 97 exit and go West
towards Pleasanton. Travel 1.4 miles until you come to Corgey Road. Make
a left on Corgey road. After you have traveled 0.2 miles on Corgey road, on your
right, you will see a gate with "Cementerio Sotelo" written on top
of the gate. There are two, very old, mausoleums at Sotelo
Cemetery. One is near the entrance of the gate and the
other is next to the tree, where the original Sotelo family members
are buried. I do not know who is buried in the mausoleums.
Any information would be appreciated. Also, there is an old
"unidentified headstone" buried away from the rest of the
graves. The headstone is unreadable.
The first burial appears
to be of Rita de la Luz Emeteria Delgado Sotelo (1866). Wife
of Ignacio, Sr., mother of Ignacio, II, and grandmother
of Ignacio B.
It is important to note that the
older section of the cemetery is located to the left of
the gate entrance (the Sotelo family).
This information was
compiled by Andrew Robles and Christina Robles on June 18, 2001,
by transcribing the information off of the tombstones. Much appreciation is given
to Robert Lee Tarin, Jr. for the information he provided on
the dates of birth, dates of death and relationship regarding
the Sotelo family, whose tombstones were very hard to
read because they were old.
