Footnotes ...

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