French Creek (Snohomish River tributary) explained

French Creek is a stream in the U.S. state of Washington. It is a tributary of Snohomish River.

A share of the early settlers being of French Canadian descent caused the name to be selected.[1]

Another French Creek is located within the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest, and is home to wilderness hiking trails.[2]
