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