  • Guide to Oral History Collections in Missouri
    Guide to Oral History Collections in Missouri. Compiled and Edited by David E. Richards Special Collections & Archives Department Duane G. Meyer Library Missouri State University Springfield, Missouri Last updated: September 16, 2012 This guide was made possible through a grant from the Richard S. Brownlee Fund from the State Historical Society of Missouri and support from Missouri State University. Introduction Missouri has a wealth of oral history recordings that document the rich and diverse population of the state. Beginning around 1976, libraries, archives, individual researchers, and local historical societies initiated oral history projects and began recording interviews on audio cassettes. The efforts continued into the 1980s. By 2000, digital recorders began replacing audio cassettes and collections continued to grow where staff, time, and funding permitted. As with other states, oral history projects were easily started, but transcription and indexing efforts generally lagged behind. Hundreds of recordings existed for dozens of discreet projects, but access to the recordings was lacking or insufficient. Larger institutions had the means to transcribe, index, and catalog their oral history materials, but smaller operations sometimes had limited access to their holdings. Access was mixed, and still is. This guide attempts to aggregate nearly all oral history holdings within the state and provide at least basic, minimal access to holdings from the largest academic repository to the smallest county historical society. The effort to provide a guide to the oral history collections of Missouri started in 2002 with a Brownlee Fund Grant from the State Historical Society of Missouri. That initial grant provided the seed money to create and send out a mail-in survey.

  • Callaway County, Missouri During the Civil War a Thesis Presented to the Department of Humanities
    THE KINGDOM OF CALLAWAY: CALLAWAY COUNTY, MISSOURI DURING THE CIVIL WAR A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS By ANDREW M. SAEGER NORTHWEST MISSOURI STATE UNIVERSITY MARYVILLE, MISSOURI APRIL 2013 Kingdom of Callaway 1 Running Head: KINGDOM OF CALLAWAY The Kingdom of Callaway: Callaway County, Missouri During the Civil War Andrew M. Saeger Northwest Missouri State University THESIS APPROVED Thesis Advisor Date Dean of Graduate School Date Kingdom of Callaway 2 Abstract During the American Civil War, Callaway County, Missouri had strong sympathies for the Confederate States of America. As a rebellious region, Union forces occupied the county for much of the war, so local secessionists either stayed silent or faced arrest. After a tense, nonviolent interaction between a Federal regiment and a group of armed citizens from Callaway, a story grew about a Kingdom of Callaway. The legend of the Kingdom of Callaway is merely one characteristic of the curious history that makes Callaway County during the Civil War an intriguing study. Kingdom of Callaway 3 Introduction When Missouri chose not to secede from the United States at the beginning of the American Civil War, Callaway County chose its own path. The local Callawegians seceded from the state of Missouri and fashioned themselves into an independent nation they called the Kingdom of Callaway. Or so goes the popular legend. This makes a fascinating story, but Callaway County never seceded and never tried to form a sovereign kingdom. Although it is not as fantastic as some stories, the Civil War experience of Callaway County is a remarkable microcosm in the story of a sharply divided border state.

  • The History of Hunting in St. Charles County Confluence of Missouri and Mississippi Rivers
    The History of Hunting in St. Charles County Confluence of Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. Note the color difference between the rivers. Located at the juncture of three major rivers, St. Charles County has long been a “hunting ground” for all who have called the area home The ecology of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers varied because of the nature of each river. The Missouri River’s average gradient of one foot per mile enables it to move more sediment. Because it drains a loess-mantled region, it carries high suspensions of loess materials, giving the river its famous muddy color. In its natural state, the Missouri River channel was broad and shallow, with numerous islands and sandbars. Before the 20th century, it was approximately twice its present width, occupying thirty to fifty percent of the width of its floodplain. The Missouri River bottoms had natural lakes or perennial wetlands in St. Charles County, including Marais Croche and Marais Temps Claire. Amos Stoddard reported in 1804 that the extensive bottoms of the Missouri River “are generally covered with wood, and are seldom inundated.” 1 Describing the Mississippi River floodplain, Rev. Timothy Flint observed, “Between such magnificent outlines, from the foot of the Mamelles, the prairie, in ascending to the north, has a width of five miles, and is seventy miles in length…Two fine islands of woodland, of a circular form, diversify the view.” 2 Its floodplain was wetter than that of the Missouri and a much better habitat for wildlife, causing Flint to record, A Sioux Chief visiting St. Charles County.

Nearly almost every city realized that public nine out of ten people in the state are served by public water would be essential to their water systems. Missouri’s four largest cities—St. Louis, community’s continuing growth and Kansas City, Springfield and Independence—have prosperity. Adequate water supplies were provided drinking water to their citizens for well over a especially good for business. Merchants hundred years, and most of the state’s cities have enjoyed and manufacturers pushed for public public water for over three-quarters of a century. Like the water supplies because they saw the communities that fostered them, these water systems have positive effects, such as the expansion of grown and evolved over the years, reflecting technological industry, on cities that had obtained advancements and the changing expectations of them. In 1875, when Springfield’s civic customers. Today it easy for Missourians, like other leaders solicited proposals for a Americans, to take their safe, readily available water waterworks (a term used to describe all supplies for granted. the built components of a water system—pipes, pumps, reservoirs, tanks, filter plants, etc.), a newspaper editorial noted the “universal experience” that cities which had established waterworks moved ahead, “while their sisters, with other advantages equal, were rapidly going to decay.”1 Naturally, people were concerned about the purity of their city’s water source, especially since the early water- works employed little in the way of water treatment as we know it today.

  • Missouri State Research Guide Family History Sources in the Show Me State
    Missouri State Research Guide Family History Sources in the Show Me State Missouri History Missouri became the 24th state when it was admitted to the Union on 10 August 1821. Its central location, navigable waterways, and variable terrain attracted settlers from every part of the country as well as from abroad. Missouri was settled by people from New England, the Ohio Valley, the Appalachian region, and the upper South, as well as from Germany and other European nations. Four major migrations influenced Missouri’s Library of Congress, “Watercolor at the Thomas F. Eagleton, U.S. settlement. The first began during Spanish Courthouse, St. Louis, Missouri,” original digital file. and French control when each encouraged American settlement due to their fear of British encroachment. This group settled in 1798 in what is now the area of St. Charles County. That same year a group of German-Swiss from North Carolina settled near the Whitewater Creek bottoms in present-day Cape Girardeau and Bollinger counties. The second wave of settlers came with the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. The population grew from 10,000 in 1804 to more than 65,680 by 1821 when the state was admitted to the Union. The third major wave was from 1820 through 1860 when the Ohio-Mississippi-Missouri river system and the extension of the Cumberland Road to the Mississippi River brought thousands of immigrants from the upper South and lower Midwest into Missouri. Kentucky contributed the largest number of settlers during this period, followed by Tennessee, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. The mountaineers from middle or east Tennessee and North Carolina were especially attracted to the Ozarks.

  • History of Missouri Forests in the Era of Exploitation and Conservation
    HISTORY OF MISSOURI FORESTS IN THE ERA OF EXPLOITATION AND CONSERVATION David Benac and Susan Flader1 Abstract—The era of timber exploitation and early conservation in the Missouri Ozarks occurred roughly from 1880 to 1950, beginning when large timber companies moved into the region to harvest the pine and oak of the valleys and ridgelines. Pine was largely depleted by 1910, but oak harvest continued. Resident Ozarkers, who came largely from a tradition of subsistence hunting, gathering, and basic farming, frequently resisted the efforts of both timber companies, such as the Missouri Lumber and Mining Company, and governmental agencies to bring modernization and industrial productivity to the region. As a result, governmental conservation developed later in Missouri than in neighboring states. The federal government created its first national forests in Missouri in 1933, and the state did not establish a permanent agency devoted to forestry until 1937. The struggle to control access to the region’s forest resources and culture remained a prominent issue throughout the era. The legacy remains today in forests with an abnormally high percentage of cull and continued resistance of Ozarkers to governmental regulation. INTRODUCTION THE TIMBER BOOM The forests and the people of the Missouri Ozarks experi- The Missouri Ozarks experienced a timber boom from enced waves of change from the 1880s to the 1940s.
