Pilgrim Township is a township in Dade County, in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1]
Pilgrim Township was named after the settlement of Pilgrim, Missouri, which is still listed by the USGS as an unincorporated community.[2][3] A post office called Pilgrim was established in 1886, and remained in operation until 1907.[4] A first settler of the community was a native of Kentucky; its name may be a transfer from Pilgrim, Kentucky.[5]
