Footnotes ...

Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Colvins Gap might be written as Colvin Gap. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Colvins Gap.
<2>The location has been supplied by the Geographic Names Information System - which is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). While these values should be definitive, we found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required.
