Footnotes ...

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