I have a transcription of a 1759 deed that refers to Hughes Creek in Albemarle County. Can anyone tell me where Hughes Creek was? I also have an abstract of a 1777 deed from *Amherst* County that seems to refer to the same land, so this creek could have been near the border between Albemarle and Amherst (before the creation of Nelson County) -- thus, it may be in present-day Nelson, or in Albemarle, but near Nelson. I've already consulted the Geographic Names Information System (http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnis_web_query_form). Thank you!
