Footnotes ...

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