Fremont, MO

Fremont is a census-designated place in western Carter County, Missouri, United States. The 2020 census counted 43 residents. Fremont is located on U.S. Route 60, approximately 10 miles west of Van Buren in Pike Creek Valley. The community was founded circa 1887. About the only remnants of the towns industry are the railroad embankments. Ties and other uses of lumber fuelled the town through the turn of the 20th century. That mix gives Fremont a clear local shape within Missouri, with older layers still visible in current places. The local scoop is a place whose streets, landmarks, and institutions keep its earlier story close to the present. The site of Fremont was originally patented by Julius N. The claim was filed at Jackson, Missouri, on January 1, 1859.
