This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Barbers Creek Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Yc.2ADE/800.1 Message Board Post: I was raised in Oconee County *on Barbers Creek*. I believe (please verify this) that Oconee county was once Clarke County. . . Clarke county divided and Oconee was formed from part of Clarke County? Anyway, I believe we were always considered to be "Barbers Creek Township" while I lived there from the 1960's. Barbers Creek is right off Mars Hill Road. Watkinsville is the county seat now. If I can help more, let me know. I now reside in North Carolina... but my family and friends are still at Barbers Creek! Paula

I live in Bogart, Oconee Co., GA. aprox. midway of Athens and Monroe, (WaltonCo). Barber (w/o "s") Creek is the southern boundry of my property line. This is up-stream from Mars Hill Road by probably 5 miles.
