Jose de Cruz House, Trampas, Taos County, NM
Summary
Significance: Parts of the dwelling may go back to 1855. A date before the establishment of Fort Burgwin in 1853 to control the Indians is unlikely as the house is in an isolated place. The glass-filled windows could have easily been added when one of the later additions was made. Room No. 1 with its 2 corner fireplaces is typical of heating arrangements in large rooms.
