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