Do you know of Black's Ridge ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Black's Ridge. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Black's Ridge.<1>

Our sources for Black's Ridge (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Black's Ridge other than they indicate that Black's Ridge would be found somewhere in Mecklenburg County, Virginia.
