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