Hi Ed, I will take a guess and say that most from Mo migrated to Michigan for work. I don't know when your ancestor may have come to Michigan but I know that mine came from Lawrence County for that purpose. I live in Mid-Michigan near Flint and there is an area of town that has always been affectionately called "little Missouri" Since I am in Michigan I may be able to help you with a cemetery search. E-mail me with your information and I will see hwat I can find out for you.
