Below I have listed all of the markers found in the Riverside Cemetery located in Kelsey Minnesota. You will find names dates and any other words written on the markers. I have VFW members listed however the information found on the military markers is listed on my VFW Memorial page and can be accessed by clicking on the link below.
I have also started a list of people known to be buried here that do not have markers. As some of the records were lost due to fire please feel free to let me know if you know of anyone buried here that is not listed.
I have listed all the markers found if the person does not have a death date on the marker it maybe a combined marker and it is not ment to mean they are actually buried there yet. By no means am I trying to hurry them along. I just entered all available information off the markers. However if this is found to be upsetting to anyone please let me know and I will make corrections accordingly.
Any comments or corrections are appreciated.

These people are listed together because they seem to all be buried in a family plot with the Hagen marker at the head of the plot. There are no names on the markers for Mother or Father. By looking at the plot you would assume that they are Ediths parents.
