Seybert is an extinct town in Dade County, in the U.S. state of Missouri. The GNIS classifies it as a populated place.[1]

A post office called Seybert was established in 1887, and remained in operation until 1918.[2] The community was named after Silas E. Seybert, the proprietor of a local mill.[3]

An 1899 history of Dade County reported that Seybert was on the Sac River and had a general store, a grocery store, a blacksmith, a mill, and a Grand Army of the Republic post.[4]
