   Worth County Data



 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.
