Anna, there is a Rock Creek in present day Pickett County, TN. It's north of Pickett State Park (I believe it may even be part of Pickett State Park). During the time of the Civil War, I think that area was part of Scott County, TN. Rock Creek crosses Hwy 154 and is on the road north from Pickett to Wayne County, KY. There was an Alexander Evans (b. abt. 1826) who was living in Fentress County at the time of the 1860 Census. I don't know if this was the same one or not. Gary Norris may know something about him, if he was in the Civil War.
