The Puckerbrush Parade
steps off.....
I talked to locals and no one knows the origin of Puckerbrush. An older gentleman speculated that Puckerbrush describes what it's like to kiss a man with a wiry mustache. According to the Forest City Website, in the beginning Forest City was known as Puckerbrush.

Not so fast! Puckerbrush was a recognized community in Warren County (near New Virginia, about half way between Osceola and Indianola. That Puckerbrush was located in rolling hills with real thick brush (blackberry and gooseberry) in the low spots.
It was great for pies and places to hunt but was a real pain if you needed to go someplace.
