Little Goose Creek is a tributary of Goose Creek river in Clay County with headwaters in Laurel County in the U.S. state of Kentucky.
It is 16.5 miles (26.6 km) long with its confluence with Goose just north of Manchester, at an altitude of 795 feet (242 m).
Tributaries and post offices
= Raders Creek
=Sory postoffice was established on 1926-07-91 by postmaster Margaret Bowling Garrison, named after a friend of her husband J.B. from World War One.
It being located close to the mouth of Rader Creek, her first choice of name was in fact Rader.
It closed in June 1933.
In 1918, Lucy Ledford had a mine 0.25 miles (0.40 km) upstream on Rader, the Cotton heirs had one on a minor fork 0.5 miles (0.80 km) upstream, John Gibson one on Rader itself 3.375 miles (5.432 km) upstream, James Lewis one on Rader 4.25 miles (6.84 km) upstream, and Niah Resner one 4.5 miles (7.2 km) upstream.
William Ponder's mill was 1.875 miles (3.018 km) upstream, and his mine was 0.25 miles (0.40 km) upstream on Rich Hollow.
Tip Barron's mill was 4 miles (6.4 km) upstream on Rader.
Sidell post office was 2.5 miles (4.0 km) upstream on Rader, where James M. Baker had a mine.
William Sandlin's mine was on Sandlin, 0.5 miles (0.80 km) upstream.
= Hooker
=Hooker postoffice was established om 1905-04-06 by Matilda L. Craft and closed in 1974.
It was probably named after local family James and Emily Hooker.
Originally located 1 mile up the Hooker Branch, sometime before 1939 it moved roughly 1+1⁄2 miles (2.4 km) further up the branch to roughly the location of the Daniel Boone Parkway.
M. V. Craft had a mine 0.75 miles (1.21 km) upstream on Hooker at an altitude of 1,015 feet (309 m).
Jasper Munsey had a mine on a minor fork of Hooker 1.375 miles (2.213 km) upstream on Hooker at an altitude of 1,015 feet (309 m).
= Philpot/Urban post office and mines
=Urban postoffice was established on 1898-03-17 by husband and wife postmasters Granville V. and Millie Philpot on Philpot Fork.
It moved to several points along the branch, including 1 mile upstream where the Parkway is now, back down to Little Goose, and some time before 1948 1⁄4 mile (0.40 km) upstream of the mouth of Kinkead Branch; and it closed in 1980.
Granville Philpot had a mine 2 miles (3.2 km) upstream on his eponynmous fork.
R. T. Hayre had one on a minor fork of Philpot 0.125 miles (0.201 km) upstream and Thomas Hayre one at the 1918 location of Urban post office 1 mile (1.6 km) upstream.
William Longworth's mine was 2.5 miles (4.0 km) upstream.
= Rock Gap
=Rockgap postoffice was established on 1904-06-10 by Catharine Philpot and ran to October 1915.
It was named for a Rock Gap that it was at, or near; whose own location is unclear.
One 1914 (Selliers') geological survey map assigns it to a small stream 1 mile upstream of Philpot/Urban Branch; other 20th century maps place it west of that branch between Seeley postoffice, the postoffices of Byron and Marydell, and Laurel County.
Irvine Hoskins had a mine on Rock Gap Branch 0.25 miles (0.40 km) upstream at an altitude of 1,075 feet (328 m).
= Grays Fork
=Grays Fork of Little Goose was the location of Grace and Tinker post offices; the latter established at the mouth of Tinkers Fork near Bethany Chapel on 1889-12-31 by postmaster Francis M. Eagle and running to July 1938, at two locations along the fork.
Eagle originally wanted to use his own surname, but then chose the creek name.
The story of the name of Grace postoffice is that United States Congressman John D. White was so impressed with the work of his housekeeper Grace Kelly (1880–1956) that he suggested her name when the new postoffice was being established.
Kelly, the daughter of George Kelly of Goose Rock, married Harry Jerome Nicholson in 1903 and some time later moved to Indiana.
The postoffice was established on 1898-03-09 by postmaster Dr. Iredell C. Wyatt on or just above the Tanyard Branch tributary of Grays Fork, 2.5 miles (4.0 km) upstream of Tinker Branch.
It was subsequently moved twice: in 1912 to Goslin Branch by Philip Fields, and sometime before its closure in 1975 one mile down Grays Fork.
