History
[edit]Variant names were "Banta", "Corneau", and "Dillon".[1] A post office called Banta was established in 1881, the name was changed to Corneau in 1882, renamed again Dunlap in 1888, and the post office closed in 1942.[2] The community most likely was named after William Dunlap, an early settler.[3] Despite Dunlap being listed as an incorporated village in the Missouri Blue Book published by the Missouri Secretary of State, Martinsville does not seem to be incorporated anymore according to a 2026 MoDOT map of Grundy County[4] and the Grundy County website.[5]
