MO DPO - LaMine - lost town today1894

The La Mine post office was established in 1838 in Cooper County, Missouri. It operated under its original French name for nearly a century before a name change and eventual closure in 1956.

Today, La Mine (now spelled Lamine) is a quiet, sparsely populated unincorporated rural community. It functions primarily as farmland, a residential area, and a gateway for outdoor recreation rather than a commercial town
