Thanks--that makes sense.  I found it on my map although it is listed as just Mine Run on the map.   My gg-grandfather was on picket duty in early 1864 at Germanna Ford and also at Gold Mine Run according to his CSR at the National Archives.  I thought that Gold Mine Run had to be somewhere in the vicinity of Germanna Ford--at least a reasonable traveling distance on a horse since he served in the cavalry.  His daughter later married Jefferson Davis Holtzclaw, Germanna descendant.   Suzanne Collins Matson ----- Original Message ---- From: james <jpez0510@sbcglobal.net> To: germanna_colonies@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, October 6, 2008 10:13:59 PM Subject: Re: [GERMANNA] location of gold mine creek (run) between rt 692 and rt 611. runs parallel to 692 and west of 611 A wet spot thru the woods.
