Footnotes ...

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