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