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