Third Creek

Third Creek is a stream in Gasconade and Osage counties of central Missouri.

[1] The stream source is just west of Missouri Route 19 north of Owensville.

The stream flows northwest past Old Woollam and, after passing under Missouri Routes P and A, it gains the flow of its southern tributary Crider Creek, and enters Osage County about 1.5 mile before it joins the Gasconade at Cooper Hill.

[2] Third Creek was named for the fact it is the third in order of tributaries on the Gasconade River from the nearby Missouri River.
