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 Lacys Fort, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>	If you're interested in how the shape of Texas' counties, including Cherokee, 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 Lacys Fort may originally have been Lacy's Fort. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Lacys Fort might be written as Lacy Fort. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Lacys Fort.
