Gentry County, Administrative county in Missouri, United States
Gentry County extends across 492 square miles of northwestern Missouri, featuring agricultural lands and rolling hills between Worth County and DeKalb County.
The county received its name in honor of General Richard Gentry from Boone County, who died during the Seminole War in 1837.
Residents of Gentry County maintain ties to farming traditions through annual agricultural fairs and community gatherings at the Albany Carnegie Public Library.
Three educational institutions serve the county population: Albany R-III School District, King City R-I School District, and Stanberry R-II School District.
Local farmers in Gentry County received an 11 million dollar settlement regarding environmental concerns from a neighboring industrial hog operation in 2010.
