Rocky Fork Township is one of ten townships in Boone County, Missouri, USA. The city of Hallsville is the largest settlement in the township. Rocky Fork Township was established in 1821. Settled mainly by settlers from the upland south, the township was named after the Rocky Fork branch of the Roche Perche Creek, which was in turn named after a large rock shelf at the confluence of the two streams. The original route of the Boone's Lick Road entered Boone County from the east here. The Battle of Mount Zion Church occurred in this township during the American Civil War.
