Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Porters Ridge might be written as Porter Ridge. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Porters Ridge.
<2>The location has been supplied by the Geographic Names Information System - which is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). While these values should be definitive, we found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required.
