Personal ObservationsAll that remains is a roadside marker next to an old cemetery on a lonely rood about ten miles west of Presidio, Texas. Nine Missions were established in the Big Bend region, but this was the only marker that I could find. It was easier to find the adjacent Ochoa Cemetery. The marker is only a few miles from the Mexican border. | Artwork pending. |

TEXT HERE San Francisco de los Julimes was one of nine Missions were established in the Big Bend region in ,1683-1684 by Father Fray Nicolas Lopez, O. F. M. and Don Juan Dominguez de Mendoza. The Mission was maintained by Franciscan Missionaries to Christianize the Jumano, Julimes, and other tribes in the area. |
