Timms Creek (branch of Patsiliga Creek) Does anyone know how this may have been named? Sounds like a surname -- unless it was some Indian word that got Americanized. It appears to be a pretty long creek. I was just curious. This is the deed that mentioned it. pg 340 14 Oct 1859 Theophilus McGee to James M.
