The Civil War Collection comprises individual documents and small collections relating to
the war, which were acquired by the Missouri Historical Society by donation and purchase from
numerous sources since the society’s founding in 1866. These items have been placed in the
Civil War Collection because of their common subject matter (i.e., the Civil War). The
manuscripts in this collection relate primarily to affairs in Missouri and to the affairs and
operations of Missouri troops, both Confederate and Union, primarily in Alabama, Arkansas,
Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee. The collection includes personal
papers, such as correspondence, diaries, and reminiscences; official military papers, such as
muster rolls, loyalty oaths, paroles, and special and general orders; and newspapers.
