River Road Cemetery
Richland Parish, Louisiana

Lat: 32° 30' 39"N, Lon: 91° 42' 55"W
T16N R7E Sec 26

Contributed by Dorothy Atkins, Oct 19, 2003 [dotatkins2003@yahoo.com].  Total records = 57.

I-20 exit 138 Rayville north to Hwy 80 east on Hwy 80 to 852 north 3.5 miles it is on the right next to the road.

This is the only name I could find for this cemetery, perhaps named this because it is out on River Road. It is an old, all white cemetery, no longer in use. It abuts a newer all black cemetery, which is still in use.

These records represent all stones in the wooded part of this cemetery. Many sunken places believed to be others with out stones.

This cemetery was discovered several years back, all grown over and it was cleaned up by prisoners. It is now kept fairly cleaned of under brush.

I compiled this from the tombstones Oct 15, 2003.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
