The unique position of Missouri as a gateway to the West makes its historical references essential for anyone researching their roots in the state. County histories, land grants, and Civil War records document the state’s complex history. These resources often highlight pioneer families, river trade along the Mississippi, and the diverse immigrant communities that settled in the state to make it their new home.
