The counties are subdivided into hundreds.An old explanation is an area large enough to furnish 100 men for protection.Murderkill hundred is along the Murderkill river, kill is a derivative of Dutch or Swewdish for creek or river.The Mispillion river is the souther border of Mispillion hundred and also the Kent, Sussex county border.Hope this helps.
