    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: DHeinz Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.alabama.counties.colbert/794.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Thank You Pat. Another Website: http://www.topozone.com/states/Alabama.asp?county=Colbert allows access to topographical maps of Ross Chapel location as well as Lane Springs. Although within a mile or so of each other, they appear to be separate. A second Website: http://www.my-usa-data.com (a poor reference site and hard to navigate) shows Ross Chapel as a "historical" Alabama Church, but gives no other information. The areal photograph on that website seems to indicate that it is at or near the site of Burnstown Cemetery near the Medford Branch Stream that feeds into the Tennessee River. That areal photograph would indicated that it was not one of the areas flooded by the dam that created Pickwick Lake... Comparing the topographical map on the one site to the areal photograph on the other site, it is obvious that we are looking at the same location. Some of the mystery continues... Hope someone in the immediate area can help check it out. Dave drh2u@yahoo.com Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
