Footnotes ...
| <1> | It's a common practice for mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Bowers Hill may originally have been Bower's Hill. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Bowers Hill might be written as Bower Hill. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Bowers Hill. |
