Knob Creek is a stream in Iron and St. Francois counties in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of Stouts Creek. The stream headwaters arise on the west flank of Oak Mountain at an elevation of 1400 feet. The stream flows west-southwest to enter the adjacent valley near Lopez about one mile south of Middlebrook in the southwest corner of St. Francois County. The stream enters Iron County and turns south-southeast and flows past Pilot Knob and Ironton to its confluence with Stouts Creek.[2] The source area is at {{coord|37|39|14|N|90|37|59|W|display=inline}} and the confluence is at {{coord|37|36|01|N|90|36|51|W|display=inline,title}}.[1] Knob Creek was named for a summit along its course called Pilot Knob.[3] See also
