Boxford, Missouri
Extinct hamlet in Missouri, U.S.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Boxford is an extinct town in DeKalb County, in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1]
The community was on the east bank of the Third Fork Platte River approximately three miles northwest of Clarksdale and about one-half mile from the DeKalb–Andrew county line.[2]
A post office was established in 1854, and remained in operation until 1902.[3] The community was supposed to be named Oxford; a postal error accounts for the error in spelling, which was never corrected.[4]
