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