Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Bears Crossroads might be written as Bear Crossroads.

<2>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.
