Guinns Creek

Stream in the American state of Missouri

Guinns Creek is a stream in southeastern Pike County of eastern Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of Bryants Creek.[2]

The headwaters arise at the confluence of the North and South forks just north of the Pike-Lincoln county line[3] at 39°13′46″N 90°55′41″W.[1] The stream gains the tributary of Killdergen Creek just north of the community of Sledd and just before passing under Missouri Route W.[3] The confluence with Bryants Creek is approximately one mile southeast of Annada and one-half mile east of Missouri Route 79 at 39°15′06″N 90°48′33″W.[1][2]

Guinns Creek has the name of George Guinn, the original owner of the site.[4]
