Riverview Cemetery is perched above the Delaware River off Lamberton and Lalor Streets in Trenton, New Jersey. Originally established in 1699, it is a designated historical landmark. Incorporated in 1858, it continues to be an active cemetery with lots still available for purchase. Riverview was a popular final resting place for residents of Trenton and its surrounding suburbs, including Bucks County, just across the Delaware River. Almost 50 Vansants are buried here.
