Good Day everyone We are working on Volume II of Cumberland Pioneers (( www.cumberlandpioneers.com )) and seeing some potential grant placements challenges. We have discovered that Smith fork, for example was called Southwest Fork, McNeelys Creek and many early pioneer surveyors called this creek "Collins River" Hickman Creek was called Beaver creek in 1785 when Surveyor William Dobbins came in and surveyed three large tracts. My dilemma now is that for Mulherrin Creek I cannot find any early pioneers names. My questions - does anyone know any other names for Mulherring Creek?? Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you Jack Masters Gallatin, TN 37066 ____________________________ Jack Masters www.cumberlandpioneers.com www.jackmasters.net

Sir, Collins River is in Warren County and is a tributary of the Caney Fork. The Caney Fork flows into the Cunberland. Doug I have fished in a lot of those creeks, e.g. Jones Creek, Indian Creek, Eagle Creek, Mine Lick Creek, etc. I remember during times of low water you could see the foundation of old homes and sometimes a rock wall. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jack Masters" <aujm2@comcast.net> To: <TNSMITH@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, July 04, 2010 10:52 AM Subject: [TNSMITH] Creeks in Smith County on Caney Fork > Good Day everyone > > We are working on Volume II of Cumberland Pioneers (( > www.cumberlandpioneers.com )) and seeing some potential grant placements > challenges. > > We have discovered that Smith fork, for example was called Southwest > Fork, McNeelys Creek and many early pioneer surveyors called this creek > "Collins River" > > Hickman Creek was called Beaver creek in 1785 when Surveyor William > Dobbins came in and surveyed three large tracts. > > My dilemma now is that for Mulherrin Creek I cannot find any early > pioneers names.
