Footnotes

<1>Keep in mind that you might find some variations to Abbs Valley:

It's frequently the practice of mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Abbs Valley may originally have been Abb's Valley. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether. In that case, you may find that a reference to Abb Valley is actually referring to Abbs Valley.
