Thanks Laurent and Björn. If Bartram had used again C. rufa from the Travels in the 1805 article that would be the scientific name. I believe that Barton's use of mihi meant he thought he had named a new bird. Many websites mention that Brown Creepers are unafraid of humans. How about common name of Bartram's Creeper or Variegated American Creeper, just not pine creeper.
