2010 Program
The 52nd Annual Missouri Conference on History Capitol Plaza Hotel, Jefferson City April 14-16, 2010 Hosted by: The Missouri State Archives & The Missouri Museums Association Welcome to the 52nd Annual Missouri Conference on History! I am delighted to welcome the Missouri Conference on History back to Jefferson City and the Capitol Plaza Hotel. The Missouri State Archives, the State Historical Society of Missouri, the Missouri Conference on History Steering Committee, and the Missouri Museums Association are pleased to provide the diverse sessions seen in this program. The Missouri Museums Association’s sponsorship of a fourth track of sessions and opening reception this year continues to build on the public history elements that have always been a part of this conference. As an archivist, seeing papers and entire sessions drawn from the records of your institution and those of other records repositories is always gratifying. It is always fulfilling to see records that you have helped preserve and make available used in creative and scholarly ways. Just as the sessions will teach us more about our past, this year’s keynote address will provide new insight into the turbulent elements that ensured Missouri’s memory of the Civil War would be anything but conciliatory. This theme also will be illustrated in Divided Loyalties: Civil War Documents from the Missouri State Archives, an exhibit created by the Archives, that will open at the conference and then tour the state during the war’s sesquicentennial. I thank everyone for their continuing support of the conference and hope that it will be beneficial to all. -

FLUKER August 2015 Copyright Amy L. Fluker 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This project argues that Missouri’s singular position as a border state not only between the North and South, but also between the East and West shaped the state’s Civil War experience as well as its memory of the conflict. During the Civil War, Missouri was a slaveholding border state on the western frontier and home to a diverse and divided population. Neither wholly Union nor Confederate, Missouri’s Civil War was bitterly divisive. In its aftermath, Missourians struggled to come to terms with what it had been about. -
Thirst for Knowledge: Historic Context for the 1872 Neosho Colored School
Thirst for Knowledge Historic Context for the 1872 Neosho Colored School Prepared for the Carver Birthplace Association and the National Park Service August 22, 2018 by Debbie Sheals Building Preservation, LLC Columbia, Missouri Members of the Gage and Alexander Families of Neosho, date unknown. From the collections of the George Washington Carver National Monument. Thirst for Knowledge: Historic Context for the 1872 Neosho Colored School The first national superintendent of schools for the Freedmen’s Bureau, northerner John W. Alvord, began his tenure with the Bureau in late 1865 with a personal tour of the former confederate states. His first report for the Bureau, written in January of 1866, commenced with the following notes. “The desire of the freedmen for knowledge cannot be overstated.” He included a list of reasons for that enthusiasm, the first of which was “the natural thirst for knowledge common to man.”1 1 John W.
