Cinque Hommes Creek

Cinque Hommes Creek is the main stem of the Cinque Hommes Basin. It rises southwest of Perryville at the confluence of Sandy and Tyler Branches. It flows under Interstate 55 and collects its first named tributary, Spring Branch on the south side of Perryville. East of Perryville it collects Dry Run Branch. After meandering for five miles Cinque Hommes Creek collects Bois Brule Creek, the largest tributary. At this confluence the creek flows along the bluffs of the Mississippi River. It enters the river near river mile 95.
