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