Boone County, located in the great state of Missouri, was established on November 16, 1820, and named in honor of the renowned American frontiersman, Daniel Boone. The county is situated in the central part of the state and covers an area of 685 square miles. Its county seat is Columbia, which is also home to the University of Missouri, founded in 1839.
The area that became Boone County was first inhabited by Native Americans, specifically the Mississippian Culture, followed by the Osage and Missouri tribes. European exploration began with the French in the 18th century, and American settlers started to arrive in the early 19th century. The Boone's Lick Trail, an early pioneer route that originated from St. Charles, Missouri, played a significant role in the county's development by connecting it to the rest of the state.
Boone County has a rich agricultural heritage, with a focus on cropping and cattle farming. The agricultural industry thrived with the arrival of the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad in 1892, providing better transportation and access to markets.
One fun fact about Boone County is that it is home to Rock Bridge Memorial State Park, which features a natural rock bridge, formed by the collapse of a cave's roof, creating an unusual geological formation. The park also hosts more than 15 miles of trails, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts to explore and enjoy the stunning landscape.
