Maps are from MapQuest

The location of Andreas Kilian's 1st home in NC above, is from a map published in the Fall 1967 issue of the North Carolina Genealogist.  The map as published in Fall 1967, appears to be a 3rd generation copy of the original map.  This map in the Fall 1967 issue was discovered by Gerald Affeldt.  After the Andreas Killian reunion in 1997 or 1998, Gerald & Terri C. Affeldt took me, Wayne Milam and his wife to the spot.  Gerald gave me the citation for the map, that evening, but very soon afterward, I lost the citation.   Gerald resent me the citation in email 3 Jan 2000.

I didn't find that creek either, or McCorkle's Creek for that matter.

The deed names Hall's Creek at McCorkle's Creek, a branch of Mountain Creek, Lincoln County (deed book, page number and details are in: "German Speaking Peoples West of The Catawba 1750-1800" - by Lorena S. Eaker (c) 1994
