From National Register of Historic Places 2014: (
visit link) "The area was uninhabited by a permanent civilian population of Europeans prior to the American Revolution, but after the war, land sales and bounties to war veterans attracted homesteaders. Riverside Cemetery records the lives of the immigrant families who settled the region and who were prominent in its early history. These settlers brought their ideals towards death and cemeteries with them and the earliest burials in the cemetery clearly reflect this New England influence. "
