Carroll Creek

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carroll Creek is a tributary of the Monocacy River in Frederick County, Maryland. The headwaters of the creek are located southeast of Gambrill State Park. The stream runs roughly east through Frederick City to the Monocacy, which drains to the Potomac River. The Shawnee Indians, who called the Monocacy River, “Monnockkesey” (which translates as “river with many bends”), named Carroll Creek “Walkwaki Methtegui,” which translates as “down in the gully creek.”
