Michael and Phoebe settled near his father-in-law (Jesse) on what is known as Coon Creek. It was first known as Camp Creek because the Creek Indians had a large camp on this creek about one mile from the Clear Creek Falls before the white man came. The Creek Indians also had a burial ground in about 100 feet of the lower falls, where there were a great number of rock, large and small, with which to cover the graves of their dead. Based upon early traditional stories, the idea was prevalent and quite a bit of proof to sustain it that the Indians worshipped this beautiful water falls and because they did, used the burial grounds nearby. In the early days, the Creeks spent much time at and near the falls. Michael and Phoebe Bennett reared an outstanding family.
