Footnotes ...

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