Footnotes ...

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