Photographic Print

Saint Joseph, Missouri was founded by Joseph Robidoux, a local fur trader, and in its early days was a rough frontier outpost, one of the last supply and jumping-off point over the Missouri River toward the “Wild West”. Until after the American Civil War, ‘St. Joe’ was the westernmost point in the United States accessible by rail.

St. Joseph was the eastern point of the Pony Express, a system of horseback riders relay carrying messages across the prairies, plains, deserts, and mountains of the Western United States from April 1860 to October 1861. William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody was 15 when he started riding for the Pony Express.

The Wah-Zha-Zhe tribe that became known as the Osage lived in central and western Missouri by the late 1600s. The name Osage comes from Ouchage, the French word explorer Jacques Marquette gave to the tribe he met.

The name Osage is also the name of the river that flows into the Missouri River in the central part of the state. The Missouri Constitution fixed the location of the capital upon the Missouri River, within forty miles of the mouth of the Osage River.
