Springfield-Greene County Library, Digitized Collections: http://thelibrary.springfield.missouri.org/lochist/collections.cfm

Very good for Springfield & the Ozarks; Turnbo Collection and Regional Periodicals are particularly useful;

That's an excellent link! I noticed under Greene County Records it has an index to Divorce records from 1837-1950!

Hi John :)

Could you tell me why Hickory County has so little info on the web? That is the county of my grandfather's birth.

When a county doesn't have a genealogy or historical society on the web, I look for a local government website, which Hickory does have.

It's population of approximately 9,000, and its movement towards becoming a retirement community, may have something to do with their lack of internet resources. (source)

I've added a few links above to the USGenWeb, AccessGenealogy, GenealogyTrails, and GenForum sites for Missouri, and they do have some information for the smaller counties.

The history of neighborhoods in the city of St. Louis.

This is good if you have ancestors in St. Louis and want to know more about the area where they lived.
