Divorces and Separations in Missouri

Divorces and Separations in Missouri (1808–1853) is a small, 35-page, soft-cover book with a bold yellow cover. Unfortunately, it may be overlooked because of its size, but the information contained within its pages can be a genealogist’s dream come true. Early divorces, and especially separations, are not the easiest records to locate, but when we do find something relating to family disputes and marital breakups, we get a glimpse of our families in a little different light. If you have an elusive Missouri family from this time period, don’t overlook this small book. It just may hold the information you need to locate the missing link in your ancestry that was divided or separated by marital problems.  This book is available in our historic Illinois Room.
