Eastview, Missouri

Eastview is an extinct town in northeastern Taney County, in the Ozarks of southwest Missouri.[1] The location is along a ridge occupied by Farm Road 147 which is a portion of the scenic Glade Top Trail within the Mark Twain National Forest.[2]

A post office called Eastview was established in 1901, and remained in operation until 1928.[3] The community was so named on account of its lofty elevation.[4]
