Enough (/ˈiːnʌf/ EE-nuf)[2] is a ghost town in Kaolin Township,[3] Iron County, in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It lies near the headwaters of the Big River.[4] The site is now part of Mark Twain National Forest at the south end of Council Bluff Lake, created in 1981. The Forest Service has a boat ramp for the lake at Enough.
History
[edit]A post office called Enough was established in 1916, and continued until 1937.[5] The community was named by postal officials who informed the imaginative postmaster that his hundreds of naming suggestions were "enough".[6][7]
