Flanders Callaway House was a historic home formerly located near Marthasville, Warren County, Missouri. It was built about 1812, and was a two-story, five-bay, walnut hewn-log frontier house. The house was typical of early Federal style log constructions found in Kentucky and Tennessee. Its builder Flanders Callaway was a son-in-law of famed frontiersman Daniel Boone, husband of his second eldest daughter Jemima. Daniel Boone's funeral in 1820 was held in the barn of the Flanders Callaway homestead.
