2019 Map of Ransom Stand

About this map

Ransom Stand serves as a central point in this transition zone where the hills of Tennessee meet the Alabama state line. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of hollows and ridges, many bearing the names of local families who settled the area, such as McFalls Ridge, Bevis Ridge, and Patterson Hollow. For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed in its placement of family burial grounds, including the Stribling, Gean, Brown, and McFalls cemeteries, often located on higher ground overlooking the creek valleys.
