Footnotes

<1>Keep in mind that you might find some variations to Elkins Junction:

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