    1. Re: [TNBEDFOR] counties
    2. I am a native of Bedford Co and have been living in Williamson Co for thirty-five years. Each county has a Flat Creek. I think a very narrow area at the NW corner of Bedford County was once in Williamson County, but there is nothing in the state boundary changes that substantiates that. I believe it is true because there are early wills in Williamson Co for some people who are thought to have settled in Bedford Co and always lived there. Lamb is one name I think of. Bedford County is generally said to have been taken in its entirety from Rutherford county.

One in the north area but not in Bedford County and one associated with a stream called Flat Creek in the southeast side of Bedford County where many of my ancestors resided. I also understand the (north) Flat Creek is in Williamson County. Since I believe Bedford County was formed from parts of Williamson County then I don't know how the (north) Flat Creek could ever have been in Bedford County. Maybe someone else can tell you which Flat Creek the Rosebank Cemetery is associated with. Wayne Austin
