Welcome to Priceville ...

So far, we found very little information about Priceville. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Priceville to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Priceville - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Priceville, please Contact Us.


While we don't have the exact location of Priceville , we believe that it would have been located within present day Pettis County<2>.

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Priceville, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>If you're interested in how the shape of Missouri's counties, including Pettis, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
