Help identifying cemetery in Tampico

Hello,

Two of my relatives, husband and wife William and Hattie Bauer, died in Aug 1898 within three days of each other in Tampico, Mexico of yellow fever. I have just located them in the death registers, and their burials are described as follows:

Hattie: section one of the general cemetery for a rental period of five years.

William: section one of the second cemetery, rented for the time period required by law.

I would think they'd be buried together or near one another having died so close together. Does anyone know if this would be the cemetery, and if so, what is the name and location of the cemetery now? Also if there is a way to contact the cemetery or if there are registers there.

Thanks,
Melanie Tucker
