Mill Spring Creek is a small stream in Wayne County in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of the Black River. The stream source is a spring that emerges on the northeast edge of the Black River floodplain just south of the community of Mill Spring at 37°03′35″N 90°40′55″W / 37.05972°N 90.68194°W / 37.05972; -90.68194. The stream flows south-southeast for one half mile to its confluence with the Black at 37°03′14″N 90°40′45″W / 37.05389°N 90.67917°W / 37.05389; -90.67917.[1][2] Mill Spring Creek was named for the fact it was fed by a spring which powered a watermill.[3]
