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