Roanoke and its suburban margins transition into the steep slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains in this contemporary survey. The southern expansion of the city is defined by high-elevation landmarks such as Stone Mtn, Roanoke Mtn, and Buck Mtn, while the Blue Ridge Parkway snakes through the center of the terrain. The landscape is dotted with numerous small family burial grounds and community cemeteries, including the Hartman Family Cem, Boitnott Cem, and Miller Chapel Cem, which offer significant genealogical value for families from the Roanoke County and Franklin County borderlands.
