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