Redmondville is a small, quiet place in the state of Missouri, USA. It's not a big city or even a town with its own government. Instead, it's what we call an unincorporated community. This means it's a group of homes and buildings that are part of a larger county, but they don't have their own mayor or town council.

Where is Redmondville?

Redmondville is found in the western part of Iron County, Missouri. Imagine a beautiful forest – that's the Mark Twain National Forest, and Redmondville is right there! It's located on a county road, about half a mile north of Missouri Route 49.

Rivers and Creeks

The community sits on the west side of a stream called Clayton Creek. This creek then joins with the Middle Fork of the Black River, which is another stream.

A Look Back: History of Redmondville

Redmondville has a bit of history, even though it's a small place today. It was named after an early settler in the area, a person named Redmond Black.
