Could someone tell me what "Nimiipuu" has to do with Calvary Cemetery. I looked at the website recently and this name was mentioned in the article about a new statue. I emailed the cemetery but no one got back to me. I looked at some google searches and it mentions Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce. Were they in Missouri at one time? Georgia

A Memorial to the Historic journey of four Nez Perce Warriors to St. Louis in 1831 http://www.ludmilla.cz/nezpercewarriors/ This site tells of the Indians journey to St. Louis, some who died while there and talks about the proposed Monument in St. Louis Calvary Cemetery. Hope this helps!
