Beanblossom Creek

Beanblossom Creek is a stream in Monroe and Brown counties, Indiana, in the United States.[1]

Beanblossom Creek was named for a pioneer named Bean Blossom, who almost drowned when swimming across the swollen creek.[2]

A dam was constructed on Beanblossom Creek in the 1950s, forming Lake Lemon.
