The Lawrence County Gen Web Page has several links. Here is the home page text which needs some corrections: ******** Lawrence County Missouri Lawrence County was officially formed in 1845. It was first a part of Greene County, and later a part of Barry County. The settlement of the Lawrence County area was started in the early 1830's. It began with the immigration of colonizers from Virginia, Kentucky, the Carolinas and Tennessee. The Kentucky pioneers were know for their hunting abilities, while the Tennessee families were for the most part immigrating there for farming of the land. Today the county is comprised of 14 townships with Mt. Vernon being the County Seat. Lawrence County is made of the following towns, villages and hamlets: Albatross, Aurora, Bowers Mill, Chesapeake, Elliott, Forest Home, Forest Park, Freistatt, Gray's Point, Halltown, Heatonville, Hoberg, Kendallville, Lawrenceburg, Lockhart, Logan, Lyons, Marionville, McKinley, Miller, Mount Pleasant, Mt. Vernon, Olinger, Orange, Paris Springs, Pierce City, Phelps, Plew, Red Hot, Red Oak, Rescue, Round Grove, Saint Martha, Spencer, Star, Stinosn, Stotts City and Verona. I hope to add many valuable things to these pages and welcome all comments and suggestions. If you have Lawrence county information that you would like to share, please feel free to email me.
