Daffau Creek Bridge
I grew up on two branches of the Duffau Creek Bridges and swam in a pool in Duffau Community. There was also a Duffau Wells post office farther downstream for a minerl water health resort, but It closed first. I think the main DuffAU POST OFFICE IS ALSO CLOSED, BUT i NEVER HEARD OF A DAFFAU CREEK anywhere. .
