Neat middle names

Question

Josephine Antonia - Fort Antonia, Texas

Russell McIntosh - Fort McIntosh, Texas

Agnes Roxbury - Boston, Massachusetts (there's a Roxbury area there)

Dorothy Kern - Bakersfield, Kern, California

Note: I'm still trying to find out about Fort Antonia ... should it be Antonio ??? and they used a feminine form ??  Ah, well.
