Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Reeds Mills, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>If you're interested in how the shape of Ohio's counties, including Jackson, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
<3>It's a common practice for mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Reeds Mills may originally have been Reed's Mills. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Reeds Mills might be written as Reed Mills. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Reeds Mills.
<4>The pronunciation we've provided is our attempt to give a phonetic pronunciation for Reeds Mills. While it might not be exactly right, hopefully it will be close. If we have it wrong or there's a better way to pronounce the name, please contact us through our Feedback Page.
