        Palmyra is a bit of a jaunt from the lake area. The town is two hours from St. Louis, seven miles west of the Mississippi River, and twelve miles north of Hannibal. Situated not far from the River Road, Palmyra's residents have increased from 150 in 1820, to today's total of 3,600. This is a small town with a big history.
