Do you know of Pequea Creek ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Pequea 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 Pequea Creek.<1>

Our sources for Pequea 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 Pequea Creek other than they indicate that Pequea Creek would be found somewhere in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1909 and closed  in 1913.
