Black Oak Creek
Black Oak Creek is a stream in Cass and Henry counties in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of Knob Creek.
The stream headwaters arise in eastern Cass County at 38°32′24″N 94°04′17″W / 38.54000°N 94.07139°W and the stream flows southeast into Henry County and then south passing east of Creighton and under Missouri Route 7 to its confluence with Knob Creek at 38°28′47″N 94°03′19″W / 38.47972°N 94.05528°W.[1][2][3]
Black Oak Creek was so named due to the abundance of black oak timber along its course.[4]
