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