Footnotes ...

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