Andrew County Missouri Settlements

The Platte Purchase, formerly an Indian Reservation until its transformation in 1836, was vital for early settlers in Northwestern Missouri. Andrew County, established in 1841, saw rapid immigration following the establishment of new counties. Rail connectivity drove local demands for the creation of numerous townships and towns such as Amazonia, Fillmore, and Rochester. Despite early promise, some towns, like Nodaway City, faced decline due to changing transportation dynamics. Andrew County’s history is marked by evolving town structures, with notable early businesses and community formations ultimately shaping the region through the late 19th century.

Adair County was formally organized in 1841, previously part of Macon County. The area saw the establishment of various towns and post-offices over the years, with Kirksville becoming the county seat.
