The size of this cemetery and the fact that it has remained in constant use since at least the eighteenth century, make it difficult to synopsize a social history. According to the original minutes of the Riverside Cemetery in the archive records in the Town Hall, the cemetery was founded in 1872. The cemetery obviously existed well before that, however the official name and incorporation appear to date from the 1870s.
The cemetery sits on 29.51 acres. It has been in use since the eighteenth century.
The Massachusetts Historical Commission refers to this cemetery in MACRIS as NRE.802 Riverside Cemetery.
This cemetery is referred to as GR3 Riverside Cemetery, North Reading in the "Vital Records of Reading Massachusetts to the end of the year 1849."
