Wayne County, Missouri
.Wayne County is located in the southeastern region of the great state of Missouri. Established on December 11, 1818, Wayne County was one of the five original counties in the Missouri Territory. The county was named after the Revolutionary War hero, General Anthony Wayne, who became a United States Congressman and military tactician. The town of Greenville, which was named after Nathanael Greene, another Revolutionary War hero, was designated as the county seat in 1819.
The area that is now Wayne County was originally inhabited by Native American tribes such as the Osage and Cherokee. Later, European settlers, mainly from the western Appalachians, established homesteads and settlements in the county. Much of Wayne County's early economy was based on agriculture, primarily the cultivation of corn and tobacco, and the extraction of natural resources like timber, lead, and iron.
Wayne County was also deeply involved in the American Civil War. As a border state, Missouri experienced political tensions and conflicts between Union and Confederate forces. Wayne County was primarily pro-Union, but there were some pockets of Confederate support. A notable event that occurred during the Civil War in Wayne County was the Battle of Clark's Mill on October 13, 1862, where a Union force defeated a Confederate detachment from Arkansas.
One fun fact about Wayne County, Missouri is that it is home to the largest naturally occurring shut-ins at the Sam A. Baker State Park.

Visitors can explore the natural beauty of the St. Francois Mountains and the Big Creek while enjoying the park's various amenities.
