Goldman is a tiny ghost town in Jefferson County, Missouri, about 35 miles south of Saint Louis, Missouri and five miles north of the county courthouse at Hillsboro, Missouri. Goldman is located on Old Lemay Ferry Road, an old trade route connecting Hillsboro and Saint Louis. Goldman is adjacent to the historic Sandy Creek Covered Bridge, the only remaining covered bridge in eastern Missouri and a state historic site.
The town is more recently known as the place where Missouri governor Mel Carnahan perished on October 17, 2000, in an airplane crash.
