The Concan Cemetery is located about a mile northeast of the Frio River outside of the small community of Concan in Uvalde County. It is a fairly small cemetery but one of my childhood friends and several generations of his ancestors are buried there so we recently made a stop there as we were returning from a visit to Lost Maples Natural Area and Garner State Park.
