Hi
Thought you might be interested in this information from NewMexicogenealogy.org ::

De Baca County was created 28 February 1917. The County seat is Fort Sumner. De Baca County was named for Ezequiel C de Baca, New Mexico's second Governor under statehood. The dedication of the present day courthouse was on 24 November 1930. De Baca County is heavily engaged in sheep and cattle ranching. Farming is also abundant due to the valuable waters coming from the Pecos River. The outlaw named William Bonney, alias Billy the Kid, was shot by Sheriff Pat Garrett 14 July 1881. Uncle Charlie
