DIRECTORY
The Riverview Cemetery Association seeks to provide documentation of cemetery burial locations and dates. Below you will find Directory files organized by Location within the cemetery, as well as Alphabetically by burial name. The sketch is available for location reference.
About the Directory: The Riverview Cemetery Association, in recognition of a need for historical and accurate documentation, values one of its goals of recording cemetery burial information for public access.
Creation and maintenance of a directory of family names, dates and grave locations continues to be a tedious and long-term project undertaken by many interested individuals over many years’ time. Early leaders of this endeavor include Mrs. Rachael Pettit Palmer, Mrs. Ann Cullens, Mrs. Billie Davis, and Mr. William A. (Bill) Teasley. Mr. Teasley compiled, organized, and edited the most comprehensive edition in 2004, which includes historical notes and insights, and which forms the basis of our current 2020 Edition, updated and produced in digital format by Mrs. Sandra Dunn (Green) Henry.
Plans are in progress for a full cemetery survey and mapping, including locations of unmarked graves. A new directory and accompanying map is anticipated based on the results of this upcoming work.
