Brief
History:
In
1861 Worth County was organized, the
last of Missouri's 114 counties.
During the 19th century, Worth County
had three
courthouses. From 1861-1863,
Smithton, also called Worthville, was
the seat of justice, but after a
petition requested removal
to a central location, the
county seat was moved to Grant City.
