A new book has just been published about Denver’s historic Riverside Cemetery, Colorado’s oldest “cemetery park” founded in 1876 (the same year Colorado became a state). According to the author, Annette L. Student, the book not only includes a history of the cemetery, but also 114 biographies of interesting Colorado citizens, including governors and other notable citizens ranging from cattlemen to prostitutes.

Ms. Student will give a slide presentation about Riverside at the September meeting of the Colorado Genealogical Society. Copies of the book will be available at the meeting, or you can order the book by writing to Annette L. Student, 2266 South Eagle Court, Aurora, Colorado 80014. As other locations for purchase become available, we will post updates here.
