SUMMARY:Speaker Series: Missouri Slave Stampedes and the Underground Railroad
DESCRIPTION:In the decades before the Civil War\, Missouri’s unique position as a slave state bordering free states made it a flashpoint for escape attempts. Join us on Saturday\, February 28\, 2026\, at 1:00 pm when Dr. Charles Hotle explores the dramatic “slave stampedes\,” large\, coordinated efforts by enslaved people to flee across the Mississippi River into Illinois or north into Iowa. While some succeeded\, many were thwarted\, leaving behind court records and testimony that now offer rare insights into the lives\, strategies\, and networks of freedom seekers. This program examines what these stampedes reveal about the realities of slavery in Missouri\, the workings of the Underground Railroad\, and how exaggerated reports of such escapes fueled rising sectional tensions.\nThis program is free with limited availability in person and on Zoom. Reservations must be made in advance on our website\, by calling the Museum at 314-421-4689\, or by emailing info@fieldhousemuseum.org.

SUMMARY:War Pigeon! Missouri’s role in the training of pigeons and pigeoneers in WWII
DESCRIPTION:Neosho\, Missouri found itself the home to Camp Crowder\, a US Army Signal Corps replacement training center\, built in 1942. In 1943\, the Army Signal Pigeon Corps moved from New Jersey to Missouri and began operations. Camp Crowder became the training and breeding home to the pigeon corps. Several of the ten Signal Pigeon Companies the Army created in WWII were built and training at Camp Crowder. In 1946 the pigeons moved back to New Jersey\, leaving an unusual history in the Missouri base that has long been forgotten. \nThe presentation covers the Pigeon Corps from 1917-1957\, with an emphasis on the training program at Camp Crowder. It also covers the unusual field formation of the Signal Pigeon Company\, the only Army formation capable of self-sustaining it’s own staffing due to breeding of birds. Stories of hero birds are also told. The program survived through the Korean War and was disbanded in 1957\, 40 years after it’s creation.
