Patterson Creek

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Patterson Creek is a tributary of the North Branch Potomac River in West Virginia's Eastern Panhandle, in the United States. It enters the North Branch east of Cumberland, Maryland with its headwaters located in Grant County, West Virginia. Patterson Creek is the watershed for two-thirds of Mineral County.

It is known that white settlers came into the Patterson Creek Valley around Frankfort between the years 1732 and 1736. The surnames of Casey, Pancake, Foreman, and Van Meter were the first to settle the valley.
