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.

Cemetery Listings is a new feature of the site. As time permits, cemetery listings will be posted and organized by state. The majority of listings will concern all spellings of the surname, including Van Zandt, Van Sant, Vanzant, Vinzant, etc., and some of their immediate descendents. If you’d like to submit new listings, please follow the table format already established. Files can be submitted using tables in Word or in Excel to VanZandtSociety@earthlink.net
