Section 18 T14N R8W. This cemetery was used before it was dedicated in 1908. Mr. J.H. MILLER, the undertaker, used to go to the Willapa River to meet the boats at the bottom of the hill. From here he took the caskets up the hill for burial. Some of these graves were later removed to Fern Hill Cemetery. Riverside is not generally cared for. It was one cemetery I couldn't see from the car, so I went atop the hillside hoping to find a somewhat plotted existence of yesteryear. There were obvious signs of sunken areas, and very few occupants were visible. Throwing limbs out of the way and pulling over the tall grass, I found the following: ARNOLD, Mary M., b.1826, d.1950, m/o Mrs. GF PHILLIPS BOROVEC, Anne R., d. 6 Dec 1892 BOROVEC, Charles F., b.9 Jun 1914, d.14 Sep 1917, twin BOROVEC, Charles G., b.20 Sep 1889, d.30 May 1952 BOROVEC, George E., b.9 Jun 1914, d.9 Sep 1917 twin CAMERON, Elizabeth M., b.3 Dec 1863-30 Oct 1936, age 72y10m28d CAMERON, Samuel A., b.14 Jun 1863, d.8 Apr 1911 CARLSON, Andrew, b.5 Jul 1844-1 Apr 1931, h/o Matilda A.
