WHITE CREEK. AKA - "Dirty Woman Creek." American, Reel (cut time). USA, Oklahoma. A Major. AEae tuning (fiddle). AABB. Thede says the name possibly alludes to the Missouri White Creek. The tune was one in the repertoire of the Oklahoma Collins family, some members of whom contributed to Thede's book; the modern-day representative of this musical family, fiddler Earl Collins, recorded several albums.
