Brushy Creek (Big Creek tributary)
Brushy Creek is a stream in northwest Henry County in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of Big Creek.
The headwaters arise about two miles northeast of Creighton (at 38°31′18″N 94°02′07″W / 38.52167°N 94.03528°W[1]) and the stream flows to the east-northeast about three miles. The confluence with Big Creek is about 1.5 miles south of Blairstown (at 38°31′59″N 93°57′37″W / 38.53306°N 93.96028°W[1]).[2]
Brushy Creek was so named on account of brush lining its course.[3]
