Footnotes ...

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