Goldman, Missouri

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Goldman is a tiny ghost town in Jefferson County, Missouri, about 25 miles south of St. Louis, Missouri and five miles north of the county courthouse at Hillsboro, Missouri. Goldman is located on Old Lemay Ferry Road, an old trade route connecting Hillsboro and St. Louis.

Goldman is adjacent to the historic Sandy Creek Covered Bridge, the only remaining covered bridge in eastern Missouri and a state historic site.

The town is the site where Missouri Governor Mel Carnahan and two other people perished on October 17, 2000, in an airplane crash.
