Posted on: Polk County, NC Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/NC/Polk/187 Surname: Moore, Ballew ------------------------- I find in Polk County a "Hughes Creek". Look for the intersection of Hwy #9 and Hwy 14, then move southwest along Hwy 14 toward the S.C line. It is about midway between the intersection of #9 and #14 and the South Carolina state line.
