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