San Patricio
When this farming and ranching community, San Patricio was founded in about 1875, it was called Ruidoso. When an Irish priest built a small church here dedicating it to St. Patrick, the name was changed to San Patricio. The town became a favorite hangout of Billy the Kid during the time of the Lincoln County War.
San Patricio, in more recent times, has been home to actress Helen Hayes, author Paul Horgan and artists Michael Hurd, Peter Hurd and Henriette Wyeth.Today it is home to the Hurd La Rinconada Gallery and guest houses, the J. Kiker Gallery, the Hondo Iris Farm and Gallery, and the San Patricio Ecumenical Retreat Center.The Retreat Center is an historic landmark of Lincoln County. It's guest rooms were orginally created by artist John Meigs in the traditional Southwestern adobe style.
