Barry County's clerk sits in the historic Cassville courthouse
Barry County's clerk page says the office is located in the historic Barry County Courthouse in downtown Cassville.
In downtown Cassville, the historic Barry County Courthouse is more than a pretty county-seat marker. It is also a working address.
The Barry County clerk is located in the courthouse, and the Missouri Association of Counties directory places many county offices at 700 Main Street in Cassville. That helps explain why county-office directions so often point back to the square first, even when the errand is plain paperwork.
For residents, the courthouse does two jobs at once. It is part of the downtown identity of the county seat, and it is where many local-government errands still route. If you are trying to find the right office, start with Cassville and the 700 Main Street cluster before assuming the department sits somewhere else in the county.
