The first white settler in the area was Ephraim Stout in 1805. The first ironworks in Missouri and west of the Mississippi River was erected along Stout's Creek near Lake Killarney.
  
The Fort Davidson State Historic Site in Pilot Knob commemorates one of the bloodiest battles in Missouri during the Civil War. More than 1,000 men were wounded or killed when Confederate General Sterling Price attacked an earthen fort defended by Union soldiers in 1864.
  
The Arcadia Valley Academy, built in 1846 as a Methodist high school, later served as a Union hospital during the Civil War. In 1877 Ursuline nuns purchased the school and turned it into a girls school and later a convent. Its architecture is some of the most beautiful in the state and it features some of the most beautiful stained glass windows in the world.
