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 Browns Corners, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>It's a common practice for mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Browns Corners may originally have been Brown's Corners. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Browns Corners might be written as Brown Corners.
