Footnotes ...

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