Perche Township is one of ten townships in Boone County, Missouri, USA. As of the 2012, its population was 4,037.[2] The village of Harrisburg is the only incorporated settlement inside the township.

History

Perche Township was established in 1821.[3]

Settled mainly by settlers from the upland south (Kentucky, Virginia, and Tennessee), the township was named after the Roche Perche Creek, the largest stream in Boone County (save the Missouri) and flows from North to South through the middle of the township. The town of Perche, Missouri was located where the original path of the Boone's Lick Road crossed Roche Perche Creek. The town site has long been obliterated. The Church and Cemetery of Red Rock are located near here.
