Grand Falls -
A Brief History
Historians tell us that Indians referred to Grand Falls as "place of the singing waters". Long before white settlers arrived in what is now southwest Missouri, tribes constructed tepee mounds and fashioned tools and weapons for centuries near the tallest constant flowing waterfall in the state. A couple of mounds still exist up river near McIndoe Park, but the rest were destroyed during the 20th century. Tool and weapons artifacts can still be found in the area, if you have the patience.
