Hollister, the source of the Ozark?s first major influx of tourism

Hollister had an unremarkable beginning when Malinda Fortner and her son Jacob homesteaded some?virgin land? located on the floor of a valley along the banks of Turkey Creek in Taney County, Missouri in 1867. The Fortner Homestead consisting of Malinda?s original 120 acres and an additional 40 immediately adjoining it, owned by Jacob, became the center of what was to become the city of Hollister, Missouri.
