Footnotes ...

<1>It's a common practice for mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Vails Gate may originally have been Vail's Gate. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Vails Gate might be written as Vail Gate. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Vails Gate.
<2>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.
<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.
