As you can see from the old map below, Dunksburg was shown to be entirely within Pettis County. But I'm quite sure it was 'officially' in Johnson County:
"Dunksburg is the only village in Grover (Johnson County) township. It is located on the Pettis county line on section 1. Doctor Dunkley opened a store here in 1858 and the village was named for him."*
