Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Gortons Corner might be written as Gorton Corner. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Gortons Corner.
<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.
