Hi Sandy; Thank you so much for the look-up. Where is Waverly. In what county? That death notice would be about the right age for him. Maybe there is a Riverside Cementery in Waverly. I know that one of these days I will find him.

I checked my listings from Deaths Reported by Oneonta City Clerk to The Herald and it lists Potter, Leroy H d Mar 3, 1904; age 64 years; in Waverly; bur. Riverside. There are lots of Potters buried in Riverside Cem. in Oneonta but no Leroy and none that died 1904. I have compiled the records and read the stones. Perhaps it was Riverside Cem but in a different town. I also checked Oneonta Plains (of which I am cem. historian) and Glenwood both of which I've compiled records and read stones and nothing. If you wish any information on the Potters in Riverside, please contact me privately.
