Dates in Red are not inscribed on the tombstone and have either been calculated based on death date or are as a result of research on the individual.

The sweeping views of the Kanawha River valley from the top of the knoll that is the cemetery are quite grand, and could be a lovely place to have a bench to sit on and view the scenery and remember the folks that chose this as their final resting place. In old records, we've seen this cemetery also referred to as "Riverview Cemetery" and "Washington Memorial Park". Adjacent to this cemetery, on the outside of the circle drive on the river side opposite the largest number of burials in the Esta Memorial cemetery, lies the Ice Family cemetery. It is a separate cemetery, and you can view the listing for that cemetery here.

When we visited this cemetery in June 2004, only the portion where the stones were was maintained, the majority of the hill being covered in blackberry briars and tall grass. However, the areas around the tombstones that you see photos of above were fairly recently mown.  The driveway around the cemetery was in very poor shape - large potholes and overgrown shrubbery hanging over - but passable barely.  There remains a fairly intact retaining/decorative stone wall around the cemetery alongside the driveway, but there are some portions of it that are in need of repair.  More recently, the cemetery appears to be being kept up much better, with the brambles cleared away and the lawn mown more frequently, a credit to the caretakers.
