Footnotes ...

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