In August of 1896 this pioneer cemetery was a wilderness with nearly an impassable road reaching to it from the northeast. As Samuel J. Peterson stood at the graveside of his beloved father, Peterson Hanson Peterson, he decided that something must be done to save the grave of his "Sainted Mother", Anna Eliza Glenn Peterson. After years of labor and planning the Ridgley Community Cemetery was completed and incorporated in 1911.
