Abo is an unincorporated community in eastern Laclede County, in the Ozarks of south central Missouri.[1] The community is located on the east bank of the Osage Fork Gasconade River, approximately ten miles east of Lebanon.[2][3]

History

[edit]

A post office called Abo was established in 1893, and remained in operation until 1940.[4] The name may be a transfer from Abo, in New Mexico.[5]

In 1925, Abo had 25 inhabitants.[6]
