Limpy Creek
Limpy Creek is a tributary of the North Umpqua River in Douglas County, in the U.S. state of Oregon. Limpy Creek was named for a local Native American who walked with a limp. "Oregon Geographic Names" says that Limpy Creek, Limpy Prairie, and other natural features in the area are all named for the same man, who lived along the Little River, another tributary of the North Umpqua River. There is another Limpy Creek, which is a tributary of the Rogue River, in Josephine County, Oregon.
