This digitization project is made possible by a partnership between the Missouri State Archives, a division of the Office of the Secretary of State; the St. Louis Circuit Court Clerk's Office; and the American Culture Studies Program in Arts & Sciences at Washington University.

Washington University in St. Louis, University of Missouri—St. Louis, St. Louis University, and Southern Illinois University—Edwardsville have all contributed student interns to this joint project.

The St. Louis Circuit Court Historical Records Project gratefully acknowledges financial support from:

Save America's Treasures, a public-private partnership between the White House Millennium Council and the National Trust for Historic Preservation

The Academic Advisory Committee selects themes of particular significance to regional, state, and national history that these court records can highlight through scholarly research and educational programs.
