History of Charity Creek

Name originated with the prospectors in the area. Early maps show that this name was applied to the stream now known as "Hope Creek" (Prindle, 1905, pl. 3). The present Charity Creek was reported in 1908 by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) (Covert and Ellsworth, 1909, pl. 2).
