The Jefferson County deed index uses as a description, Bent Creek. I'm trying to differentiate this from the 15th District (also used as a descriptor), so I can sort out some of the individuals who share common names. I believe that Bent Creek falls in the 13th District, but don't know that for certain. If anyone might have an answer to this, I would appreciate the assistance. Regards, Morgan H Courtney
