White Rock Creek is a river in the central Great Plains of North America. A tributary of the Republican River, it flows through northern Kansas.

History

The mouth of White Rock Creek was the location where a group of six buffalo hunters from Waterville, Kansas were slaughtered by Cheyenne Dog Soldiers in May of 1869.[2] Also in May of 1869, the Excelsior Colony from New York, took claims along White Rock Creek and built a blockhouse north of the present town of Mankato. By June 1869, they were all driven out by the Indians.[3]
