Alanthus Church of Christ in Alanthus Grove, Missouri

Alanthus Grove is an unincorporated community in northwest Gentry County, in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1]

The community is on Missouri Route B approximately six miles north of Stanberry. The Grand River flows past one-half mile to the east.[2]

A post office called Alanthus Grove was established in 1855, and remained in operation until 1906.[3] The community most likely was named for a grove of ailanthus trees near the original town site,[4] and the hamlet has been denoted as this.[5]

In 1925, Alanthus Grove had 104 inhabitants.[6]
