In 2021, Missouri will celebrate the 200th anniversary of its statehood and commemoration plans are underway. The Missouri State Historical Society is coordinating the celebration under the title “Missouri 2021” to include projects, events, and programs across the state of Missouri. We are pleased to announce that Missouri 2021 has endorsed St. Louis Genealogical Society’s (StLGS) St. Louis City/County Biographies project as part of its bicentennial celebration. To date, more than one hundred and twenty-five biographies of St. Louisans have already been submitted to our project and the list continues to grow.
Please join us in commemorating Missouri’s statehood and honoring the men and women who played a part in its history. Biographies (500 words or less) are welcome from StLGS members and non-members alike and will be posted on the StLGS website. To view the biographies or for more information on how to submit your St. Louis ancestor’s biography, click here to go to the St. Louis City/County Biographies page on the St. Louis Genealogical Society website.
