Footnotes ...

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