Has anyone heard of a stream called Battle Creek either in Jefferson or
Switzerland Co or across the river in Kentucky?
In 1791, a trouble of mounted soldiers under the command of Gen. Charles Scott
crossed the river. They cross five miles downstream from the mouth of the
Kentucky river at Battle Creek, according to one account. I cannot find a
Battle Creek in Kentucky on a modern map. Five miles downstream from the mouth
of the Kentucky River puts the crossing at roughly the mouth of the Indian-
Kentuck. I'm wondering if this was possible an earlier name for the Hoosier
Creek.
