Boston, Missouri

Last updated

Boston is an unincorporated community in southern Barton County, Missouri, United States. [1] It is situated approximately halfway between Lamar and Jasper, and is about one mile northeast of the intersection of U.S. Route 71 and Route 126 on county roads. It once had a post office, but mail is now delivered from Lamar.

The town was first established as Nodaway City. On February 13, 1851, a change of name to ‘Boston’ was granted at Jefferson City, as detailed in the Democratic Banner newspaper dated February 25, 1851. A post office called Boston was established in 1891, and remained in operation until 1971. [2] The community is named after Boston, Massachusetts. [3]
