Footnotes ...

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