Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Browns Store, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>It's a common practice for mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Browns Store may originally have been Brown's Store. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Browns Store might be written as Brown Store. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Browns Store.
<3>While we're fans and frequent users of TripAdvisor, you should know that we're also members of the TripAdvisor affiliate program.
<4>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.
