Do you know of Richardson's Creek ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Richardson's Creek. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Richardson's Creek.<1>

Our sources for Richardson's Creek (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Richardson's Creek other than they indicate that Richardson's Creek would be found somewhere in Union County, North Carolina.
