Am forwarding a message to counties who are close to St Louis.  As you can see the location for the Missouri Civil War Museum will be at Jefferson Barracks in South St Louis County, Missouri.  If you or anyone you know is interested in any part of the Civil War, you might want to check into the hours and admission (if any) to visit.  This would be good for the younger generation to learn more about the Civil War and know that it just wasn't at the various locations mentioned in the school history books.

Maurath <maurath1@juno.com> Subject: [MODUNKLI] New................Missouri Civil War Museum To: MODUNKLI@rootsweb.com Date: Monday, May 11, 2009, 11:04 AM Dear Dunklin County Mail List, In 2002, a grassroots group of Missouri businessmen and citizens formed the "Missouri Civil War Museum, Library and Research Center", a 501(c)(3) non-profit, charitable organization.  This organization, preserving the story of both sides of the American Civil War in Missouri and without bias to either side, is  dedicated to the preservation and study of Missouri and its involvement in the American Civil War.  While attempts were made to locate centrally in the State, the opportunity arose to locate instead at Historic Jefferson Barracks near St. Louis, the oldest, active military base west of the Mississippi River since 1826.  To learn more about the history of Jefferson Barracks, the military gateway to the west, visit   http://www.mcwm.org/history_jbtimeline.html In 2003, the group acquired the old "Officer's Post Exchange and Gymnasium Building" at Jefferson Barracks, a beautiful old Federal-style building, built between 1903 and 1905, which is currently being refurbished to it's original state, and which will become the Missouri Civil War Museum.  The group also acquired the neighboring, smaller officer's post exchange building, which was built during World War I in 1918, and which is being refurbished to it's original state for use as the Missouri Civil War Library and Research Center.  To date, over 2000 volumes have already been collected for the library.  Membership in the organization is quickly growing and is now over 400 members.  To learn more about the Missouri Civil War Museum, Library and Research Center, please visit   http://www.mcwm.org Big plans are underway throughout the State of Missouri and at Jefferson Barracks, in anticipation of the many ceremonies and commemorances being planned for the 150th anniversary of the Civil War in 2011 (only 2 short years away).  The Civil War is still considered to be one of the most popular subjects in America, and State Tourism has stated that Civil War sites are still one of the biggest tourist draws.  Jefferson Barracks is currently going through a great renovation/revamping phase.  The whole of the approximately 2000-acre Jefferson Barracks campus will become a destination for military historians from all over the country, with museums throughout Jefferson Barracks dedicated to all of the various wars.  Thus, with the expected influx of visitors from all over the country, and most probably also from foreign countries to Jefferson Barracks, the Missouri Civil War Museum, Library and Research Center will be in a vital position to help direct visitors interested in Civil War history to other key Civil War sites located throughout the State of Missouri, including the well-known Civil War sites at Wilson's Creek (near Springfield), Pilot Knob (Fort Davidson), Westport (Kansas City), Cape Girardeau, Belmont, Palmyra, Lexington, Carthage, Nevada, Jefferson City, St. Louis and the many other Civil War sites throughout the State of Missouri. The Missouri Civil War Museum (MCWM) wants the story of every county told,  and wants every County in the State accounted for and represented at the museum.  And, they are working on creating links from their website to the Civil War link of every County in the Missouri GENWEB system.  As most of you know, soldier's military records and pension records, can sometimes contain a great wealth of family and genealogical information, often solving many of those "brick walls" and "dead ends". The MCWM hopes to some day have a file created for every Missouri soldier from every county, including military records and pension records, and this will include soldiers from other states who served in Missouri, or who lived in Missouri after the war, and/or who are buried in Missouri soil.  If you would like to help, please send any information or pictures you have about any Civil War soldiers to the MCWM.  Also, if you, or anyone you know, has Civil War artifacts or books (and especially Civil War books about your particular county), please consider donating them to the MCWM.  All donations are tax-deductible and appropriate paperwork is supplied to the donor, and staff members will make arrangements to pick these items up from you, if you can't deliver or ship them. Despite the tough times, good things are happening, and this memorial to our Missouri Civil War ancestors is long overdue.  Here's a chance to make Missouri history and help preserve the memory of our Missouri Civil War ancestors.  Please consider spreading the word about the Missouri Civil War Museum, and if you really want to help, please consider becoming a member at http://www.mcwm.org/imgs/Museum%20Membership%20Form.pdf   (put to the attention of "John") For those who don't have computer access, please send us their names and addresses and we'll mail information to them.

Does anyone know the dates when "G.W. Dillon's New Gallery, N. W. Cor.(ner) of Square, Virden, Ill." was in operation? Is there any information available on the Virden photographer? I have three original photographs and am trying to find an approximate date. One is of Nancy (Tosh) Ditson who died Jan. 17, 1882; another is that of Mary Ann (Martin) Tosh who died July 18, 1890. These two have the information as above printed on the back of the photograph. A third photo appears to be of the same card stock and size as the other two, but does not have the identifying markings of the photographer. The third photo is that of William Riley Tosh who died during the Civil War, 1863 in Natchez, Mississippi and he is dressed in his uniform. This photograph is a bit smaller than the two of the ladies but the card stock is the same size. All three are mounted on card stock and appear to be the same type with a single line border around the outer edge whereby a photo would be affixed to the card stock. Nancy (Tosh) Ditson was sister to William Riley Tosh. Mary Ann (Martin) Tosh was William Riley Tosh's wife. Thanks, Linda R.F.

Gloria =========== From: Pamela Goess <pgoess@optonline.net> Subject: Bradley Surname Request To: macoupincounty@earthlink.net I have been trying to research my great grandfather, Charles Franklin Andrews. I know he was born in Viden, Macoupin County, Illinois in January 1888. He might have had an older brother named Edgar who was also born in Virden around 1885. It is believed that his parents died when he was very young and he and his brother were left orphans. He ran away to Jasper County when he was only 12 and I found him listed on the 1910 Census as a hired hand in the <http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=1910USCenIndex&indiv=try&h=5407373>George W Lewis (can only view as a member of Ancestry) house hold.

Does anyone have access to St Louis marriage records index that would cover 1894 to 1906? I have an elusive ancestor Catherine Mary (Katherine) Meyer Foval who md Ernest E Morse by 1906 and lived in St Louis that year.

Linda IL marriage index only goes up to 1900 for most counties.  There are a few which have some after that but very few. MO marriages at Ancestry are limited too.  Not all counties have made their marriages available to anyone and that includes even publishing them up to a certain date.  Also what a lot of people don't realize is that St Louis City is an independent city and not part of St Louis County.  The only marriage records that you probably will find at Ancestry for St Louis City marriages are those which were in or before 1876.  You'll have to contact St Louis City (possibly Dept of Health) for the marriage records.  Beware that just asking them to search will cost you and if they do find it will provide a copy, certified copy may be more. With a marriage year, you should check with the Macoupin County Clerk's office.  Then with Ancestry, try their names in specific counties to eliminate the county, but make sure the county has records which date after 1915 to ensure that if they went there that their record should show up. If they were Catholic, check with St Joseph's Catholic Church in Benld and make a donation to at least cover time and copy costs.  I don't know about the Orthodox religion regarding the keeping of records but would expect that they will search their records too for a donation to the church.

I have been following the discussion about eloping to Missouri with interest as my 2nd great-grandparents appear to have done so.  Do the marriage records for St. Louis include information about the bride and groom's parents? Sally

Debbi, Thanks, but I am almost a neighbor -- I live in Granite City, so it's no problem for me to drive to St. Charles. This couple also lived in Jefferson City and Mexico, and possibly other places. He was a bricklayer, which is why they didn't live in any one place for very long -- they moved with the job. My fantasy is that they were ready to come back to Illinois and decided to get married. Got their license in the county where they lived, stopped in St. Charles to get married (I suspect that they knew the judge who married them, but I haven't proved that yet) and then home to Alton, IL. That's my fantasy -- have to start somewhere! However, if you have something at home that covers other counties in Missouri, perhaps you could look for Oscar Franklin Kramer (age 28) and Rudazyle Loretta Schoen (age 20), married June 22, 1936 by Judge Hart in St. Charles, MO.
