History
Cedarview was founded in 1912 when travelers needed a rest stop during a snowstorm.[2] The town was short-lived and never got a post office.[3] The town did have a cemetery for a few years until 1936; many babies who died of pneumonia are buried there. A few locals from nearby towns are preserving the cemetery from natural threats like erosion.[4]
