Fee Fee Creek

Fee Fee Creek is a stream in St. Louis County in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1]

Fee Fee Greenway, a wildlife corridor created by Great Rivers Greenways, runs along the creek from Maryland Heights Community Center to Creve Couer Lake Memorial Park.[2]

Fee Fee Creek derives its name from Nicholas Beaugenou Jr., nicknamed "Fifi," a pioneer citizen who established a farm on the creek bank in 1795.[3][2]
