Footnotes ...

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