Pollock is a village in north central Sullivan County, Missouri, United States.

[4] Pollock was established in July 1873 by H.F. Warner and William Lane and originally consisted of thirty-two blocks.

Another fourteen blocks, located south of the original, was added to the town plat in 1876 via Godfrey's Addition.

[5] By 1877 Pollock included two general stores, a drug store, blacksmith shop, one hotel, a schoolhouse and a small depot for the Burlington & Southwestern Railroad with a town population of one hundred,[6] and a United States Post Office was established in Pollock in 1879.

Three buildings—Rosenberry's Garage, Morlan General Store, and Anspach Cafe' -- were total losses, while buildings containing O.L.

Due to economic conditions the junior and senior years were discontinued between 1932 and 1937, and students in those grades had to finish their education elsewhere, primarily Milan, which was readily accessible via rail.

Residents William Casteel, Melvin Casto and Dick Stewart spearheaded a fundraising campaign and recruited volunteers from far and wide to acquire park equipment and prepare the grounds.

Pollock suffered a significant blow on July 26, 2011, when the United States Postal Service announced plans to permanently close the Pollock post office as part of a nationwide restructuring plan.

[8] An earlier attempt in the late 1980s to close the Pollock post office was appealed and overturned with the help of U.S.

[9] According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.17 square miles (0.44 km2), all land.
