This is where Barbara Miller used to live in Blue Creek Settlement. My 1876 map shows more than one Blue Creek. The REAL Blue Creek is several miles to the south at the point of Blue Springs Hills near the Connor Springs Ranch and was a rousing town west of Corrine. Most Utah historians are schizophrenic about place names. They begin talking about a place in the north of the county and end up talking about a place in the south. See David Miller, Great Salt Lake for a picture of the real Blue Creek, read Irene Paden's Wake of the Prairie Schooner or see Pappy Clay's interview at the National Park Service
But this northern place is also the Blue Creek. The reason for the confusion is the fact that the points are both on the old California Shoshoni Corridor which is the old Utah California Trail, or the Salt Lake Cutoff which in fact is twenty miles wide. Historians make lousy geographers.
