The road to Queen, NM, was once a stage coach route to El Paso, TX, with a stage stop in this area known as the Queen Stage Stop. The stage would stop here to rest the horses from the climb up the mountain and either rest the horses or change teams for the steep climb down into Dog Canyon and through the El Paso Gap. All that remains of the stage stop is a tall rock chimney. The people who ran this stopping off point were M. J. and E. G. Queen.

Land Deed by and between William Kelicher and Elias Queen for a parcel of land (160 acres) in Williamson county, Texas, for the sum of $100.00. vol28 p100. Deed available in files, supplied by Dixie.
