Anthony,
The cruxifixes are found from California to Texas. I am looking through my
references to see what I can send you. The California Mission Studies
Association is meeting this weekend at Santa Inez Mission (near Solvang).
This would be an excellent place to ask, so, if you can't make it, I will.
