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 Blakes Camp, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy. |
<2> | If you're interested in how the shape of Nevada's counties, including Nye, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries. |
<3> | It's a common practice for mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Blakes Camp may originally have been Blake's Camp. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Blakes Camp might be written as Blake Camp. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Blakes Camp. |
