To reach this cemetery from Orofino drive southwest on Michigan Avenue, cross the Clearwater River and turn right onto Hwy 12. The cemetery in only about .5 mile on the left or west side of the highway.
This cemetery is maintained by the Riverside Cemetery District, under a board of directors for Clearwater County, Idaho. The cemetery is still being used for burials and is well maintained. I was unable to obtain a contact.
I do not have the locations as the cemetery divided them. There is a Kiosk in the middle of the cemetery with help to locate burials. I have listed them as I read them dividing into the sections between the roads.
I have transcribed from headstone readings, taken when I visited this cemetery on Jun 30, 2007 using my digital camera, thus I have a photo of each existing stone or marker on the day I was there.
