Does anyone know where Fox Creek originates? Is it a branch of Conner Creek? I know where it comes out on the south side of Jefferson at Ashland, but north of there, is it carried by underground by viaducts?

Check the Milk River post of a few months ago. The Fox and the Milk River come together around Chalfonte and Moross I think.

Seeing those maps on the above posts, shows Conner Creek going under Van Dyke near Baseline Rd. which is 8 mile rd. I was 7 or 8 years old and I remember my dad taking me to that creek for walks and you could cross under Van Dyke using the creek but not much head room. It was located about 50 feet north of Milbank Ave and Van Dyke. The stream ran northwest. That was in 1947 or 1948.
