Farrar, Missouri
Farrar is an unincorporated community in Salem Township in eastern Perry County, Missouri. It is located eight miles east of Perryville, ninety miles south of Saint Louis, and 3.7 miles from the Mississippi River.
==History==
The original German-Saxon settlement was known as Salem and was centered on the Salem Lutheran Church built in 1859. In 1890, R.P.Farrar opened the Farrar General Store. Originally, mail had been brought in from the nearby town of Schalls and handed out on the church steps after Sunday services, until 1892 when R.P.Farrar rode by horseback to Jefferson City to make a request for a post office.〔Eggers and Company General Store, Bed and Breakfast http://eggersandco.wordpress.com/history/〕 Upon arriving, he learned that the name Salem had already been taken. Due to an already existing Salem in Missouri, the soon-to-be postmaster Farrar used his name as a temporary solution, which became permanent.〔Family Tree Maker: Eggers http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/e/g/g/Calvin-W-Eggers/BOOK-0001/0008-0001.html〕 Soon after, the "Bueckman" General Store and two blacksmiths were established in Farrar. Despite its size, over the years Farrar has fielded a number of general stores, a dairy cooperative, a transport company, as well as a couple local baseball teams. The post office closed in 2006.
