That's great and all but here are some numbers that show their Yankeeness:

By the end of the Civil War Missouri had supplied nearly 110,000 troops to the Union and about 40,000 troops for the Confederate Army.


A lot of Missouri fighters were rebels. Southern and Western Missouri was confederate. Jasper Co even flew the confederate flag at the courthouse in Carthage. That's why you never hear about any pro union Missourians or famous people fighting for the union. You only hear about the ones that supported the confederacy.
