Santa Clara Sommerfeld Mennonite settlement, at Chihuahua, Mexico, located north of the Manitoba Mennonite settlement, was established in 1926 (?) by some 600 Sommerfeld Mennonites from Manitoba. For a while, c. l950, the Mennonite Central Committee operated a hospital there. The General Conference Mennonite Mission Board was operating an elementary school at this place in 1957.
