Wilcox is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in western Nodaway County, in the U.S. state of Missouri. The community is located on US Route 71 approximately six miles northwest of Maryville and six miles southeast of Burlington Junction.[1]
Wilcox was laid out in 1879, and named after B. S. Wilcox, an early settler.[2] The settlement was along the Wabash Railroad and had a depot, shipping facilities, and a few businesses.[3] A post office called Wilcox was established in 1880 and remained in operation until 1954.[4]
