On 2-Nov-1754 Nathaniel CARTMILL was living at a place between Dog Creek and Stoney Creek near Verdin [Verdige] Hook on the Delaware River. From: DeNewCastle mailing list.
- I have been unable locate anything that resembled "Verdin Hook" or "Verdige Hook" on the Delaware, or elsewhere. It is obviously an old Dutch era place name, but it does not seem to have survived into modern times, leastwise it does not appear on the GNIS listing for Delaware. Perhaps old maps of the area will be helpful.
From: FREDERICK COUNTY [VA ROAD ORDERS 1743-1772]
