I know some Mormon Ranchers who have relatives in that part Mexico. A large group of polygamist Mormons left the US in the 1890's into the early 1900's because the church outlawed plural marriage. Some of that group still practice it, but most followed the modern LDS Church. There are numerous families in that colony, and they have names you might recognize:
Jeffs, Jessop, Crum, Farnsworth, Finicum and Bundy....
