Footnotes ...

<1>It's a common practice for mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Houcks Corners may originally have been Houck's Corners. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Houcks Corners might be written as Houck Corners. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Houcks Corners.
<2>While we're fans and frequent users of TripAdvisor, you should know that we're also members of the TripAdvisor affiliate program.
<3>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.
<4>If we found a location and have questions about the accuracy of our information, we will simply say that the marker is 'in the vicinity'. We are not confident about the location and the position of our marker is only a rough guide. If we have too many doubts about the location, we will not include it in our database.
