In 1958, the cemetery's grave markers were placed together for display in a cement base. The church closed in 1964 and was demolished; a cairn now marks its former location next to the extant cemetery.[5][6] A post office was located in Riverstown from 1869 to 1915.[7] The Toronto, Grey and Bruce Railway established a line through Riverstown in 1872, and a station was located there. The railway has since been abandoned and the tracks removed.[8] By 1910, Riverstown had a shoemaker and general store, and a population of about 100.[9] {{wide image|Riverstown, Ontario.jpg|1000px|Riverstown}}References1. ^1 {{cite web | title = Riverstown | publisher = Natural Resources Canada | date = October 6, 2016 | url = http://www4.rncan.gc.ca/search-place-names/unique/FENIN}} {{Wellington County}}{{Ontario-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web | title = Wellington North | publisher = Statistics Canada | date = November 2, 2016 | url = http://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p3VD.pl?CLV=4&CPV=3523050&CST=01012011&CVD=116949&Function=getVD&MLV=4&TVD=116940}} 3. ^{{cite web | title = Restructuring Flashnews Municipal Restructuring Summary Table | publisher = Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs | url = http://www.mah.gov.on.ca/Asset1969.aspx | accessdate = April 18, 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web | title = Garbage and Recycling | publisher = County of Wellington | url = http://www.wellington.ca/en/SWSHours--Locations--Maps.asp | accessdate = April 22, 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web | title = Riverstown Church of the Good Shepherd Anglican Cemetery | publisher = Ontario Genealogical Society | url = https://www.ogs.on.ca/wellington/2014-cemetery-info/4279.pdf | accessdate = April 22, 2017}} 6. ^{{cite book | last = Bloomfield | first = Elizabeth | title = Inventory of Primary and Archival Sources : Guelph and Wellington County to 1940 | publisher = Guelph Regional Project, University of Guelph | year = 1989 | url = https://archive.org/stream/inventoryofprima00bloo/inventoryofprima00bloo_djvu.txt | pages = 199}} 7. ^{{cite web | title = Riverstown | publisher = Library and Archives Canada | date = May 27, 2014 | url = http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/postal-heritage-philately/post-offices-postmasters/Pages/item.aspx?IdNumber=12576&}} 8. ^{{cite book | last = Brown | first = Ron | title = In Search of the Grand Trunk: Ghost Rail Lines in Ontario | publisher = Dundurn | year = 2011 | url = https://books.google.com/books?id=j5QQasymfHkC&lpg=PP1&pg=PP1#v=onepage&q&f=false | pages = 138}} 9. ^{{cite book | title = Province of Ontario Gazetteer and Directory, 1910 - 1911 | publisher = Union Publishing | year = 1911 | url = https://archive.org/stream/provinceofontar191011unio/provinceofontar191011unio_djvu.txt | pages = 896}} 1 : Communities in Wellington County, Ontario |
