Giorgetta Graves

The Giorgetta grave site is located on Colorado Hiway 145 about 5.6 miles NE of Dolores, Colorado at County Road 34.6.  Turn North on 34.6 for about 100 yards or so and a dirt road turns left and across a small bridge, road then turns to the right and the tombstone is on the left side about 25 yards or so.  It is a double grave in rural Montezuma County with only a single stone in a real thicket of brush and trees.
