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 Stokes Ferry, 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 Stokes Ferry may originally have been Stoke's Ferry. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Stokes Ferry might be written as Stoke Ferry. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Stokes Ferry.
<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.
