Tiger Ridge

I’ll stop at the truck stops at I-16 or A-Z Truckstop south of statesboro along the way.

These people live near T.R. or in the same county. We are corresponding concerning my research into T.R. and its people.

And came as close I think, as a place in Screven which had a Confederate Railroad Line, with a marker to commemorate the Confederate defense against Sherman. The place is called Oliver.

So now I think I’ve just about “boxed” the Tiger Ridge. I just need to get closer to the Savannah River, if I can. I’m taking my .387 next time, but keeping as far from trouble as I can manage.

There are no signs to Tiger Ridge. There is no tourism council, or welcome centre, unless you count the local law enforcement, which will throw you into jail just for making fun of the people.

The word is that everyone here is too closely related. I’m just saying what I hear. And they know of their reputation, and feel very defensive about it.

The best description of where it is, is somewhere between Savannah and Pembroke. I-16 runs through it or by it. Ellabell is close. I just don’t know exactly how to get there. Also, I’ve heard that one should be cautious when approaching or going by it.
