Footnotes ...

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