The beautiful little town of Eolia lies in the southern part of Prairieville Township and was founded by the late Major Henry J. Pollard, having located on his place known as "The Woodlawn Farm" about 1881 at which time the St. Louis and Hannibal Railroad made its first trip to this point. The original town was surveyed and plotted by the late Frank T. Merriwether of Louisiana who also named it Eolia, after Aeolus, the ruler of winds in Greek mythology, as he said it was the "windiest" place he ever surveryed. A post office has been in operation since 1881. Today, the town covers approximately 1.22 square miles and is home to 472 residents.
