Chocy, You should be able to find that property location in Cecil O'Dell's Pioneers of Old Frederick County, Virginia. The main creek in the Fort is Passage Creek; the North Fork is not in there. It is possible that the North Passage you mention is Narrow Passage which is near Woodstock. You can look at www.topozone.com to see some of this, but it might be worthwhile to get the really large scale topo map from USGS (I think they're 7-1/2 minutes). Take a look at the USGENWEB site for Shenandoah Co. and you can find images from Lake's 1885 Atlas of Shenandoah Co. that show a lot of this.
