Hi Melanie, Craven County seems to have often been used for areas West and especially North of Berkeley County, even when it was outside the Craven County Official lines. Problem is that the settlers outpaced the county lines and they had to call it some county. Ray >Date: Sun, 09 May 2004 13:40:08 -0500 >From: "M.

Thank you, Ray. I was hoping that maybe a river in modern Marion/Dillon counties was renamed from Tyger to something else. It's not my luck, though. Thanks again.
