Pemiscot County is a county located in the southeastern Bootheel in the U.S. state of Missouri. As of the 2010 census, the population was 18,296. The largest city and county seat is Caruthersville. The county was officially organized on February 19, 1851, and is named for the local bayou, taken from the Fox dialect word, pem-eskaw, meaning "liquid mud". Bordering the Mississippi River and floodplain, the county has been devoted to agricultural development and commodity crops. With mechanization of agriculture, its population has declined since a peak in 1940.
Murphy Mound Archeological Site has one of the largest platform mounds in Missouri; it is a major earthwork of the Late Mississippian culture, which had settlement sites throughout the Mississippi Valley and tributaries. The site is privately owned and is not open to the public. The site may have been occupied from as early as 1200 CE and continuing to about 1541.
Geography
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 513 square miles (1,330km2), of which 493 square miles (1,280km2) is land and 21 square miles (54km2) (4.1%) is water. Fishing is a popular activity among residents in the area.
Missouri is a rock band from Kansas City, Missouri, known primarily for the song "Movin' On".
History
During the late 1960s and early 1970s, Ron West was part of a well-remembered Kansas City band, The Chesmann, with his two brothers Gary and Steve. Heavily inspired by British invasion groups, the band played both live covers and recorded original studio material. Gary West was also a member of the band Shooting Star, which scored several modest AOR hits in the late 1970 and early 1980s.
Led by Ron West, the band's self-titled first album was released in 1977 on a label called Panama Records. Even though Panama was an independent label, the band garnered substantial airplay on American FM AOR radio stations, specifically with the track "Movin On". Missouri's first gig was opening for Firefall in Emporia, Kansas. Missouri toured nationally with many major label acts such as Ted Nugent, Golden Earring, among many others.
A second album, "Welcome Two Missouri", was released on the larger and international Polydor label in 1979, including a re-recorded version of "Movin On" minus the original intro. By this time two of the original line up had dropped out. No further recordings except a repackaging of recordings from the previous albums called the best of Missouri. Missouri songs are available on iTunes.
Missouri Wine refers to wine made from grapes grown in the U.S. state of Missouri. Germanimmigrants in the early-to-mid-19th century, founded the wine industry in Missouri, resulting in its wine corridor being called the Missouri "Rhineland". Later Italian immigrants also entered wine production. In the mid-1880s, more wine was produced by volume in Missouri than in any other state. Before Prohibition, Missouri was the second-largest wine-producing state in the nation. Missouri had the first area recognized as a federally designated American Viticultural Area with the Augusta AVA acknowledged on June 20, 1980. There are now four AVAs in Missouri. In 2009 there were 92 wineries operating in the state of Missouri.
History
Some Native American tribes cultivated local varieties of grapes. These species were developed further by later German Americans and Italian Americans.
Germanimmigrants to the Missouri River valley established vineyards and wineries on both sides of the river. Hermann, Missouri, settled by Germans in 1837, had ideal conditions to grow grapes for wine. By 1848 winemakers there produced 10,000 US gallons (37,900l) per year, expanding to 100,000 US gallons (378,500l) per year by 1856. Overall, the state produced 2,000,000 US gallons (7,570,800l) per year by the 1880s, the most of any state in the nation.Stone Hill Winery in Hermann became the second largest in the nation (and the third largest in the world), shipping a million barrels of wine by the turn of the 20th century. Its wines won awards at world fairs in Vienna in 1873 and Philadelphia in 1876.
This is the Hayti cemetery in Hayti Mo, it is well taken care of many good people have been layed to rest here including some of my good friends and relatives, some have asked me to video the cemetery that live now for and wide across the USA & Mexico, others from Malaysa and China and more. Hope I did not disappoint!

How did Missouri get its Panhandle?
Look at the Missouri state borders, while most of the Arkansas border with Missouri is along the 36° 30' latitude line, it runs in the northeast corner; The interstate boundary then extends downward along the St. Francis River to thirty-six degrees north, where it then descends; which caused about 980 square miles to penetrate the state of Arkansas and Missouri to acquire this area, while culturally and economically, this area has more in common with Arkansas than with the rest of the state of Missouri; So why does the Missouri Panhandle exist? And why does it not belong to the state of Arkansas?

I Spent A Day In A Poor, Dangerous Missouri Town
We give all this money overseas, and our own cities look like this??
Missouri is full of bad places.
If you measure crime, poverty, obesity, the quality of schools and jobless rates, there are a lot of cities and towns in Missouri that would be considered….bad. That’s just how it is. We all know what good and bad is.
Some say Missouri is where the worst of the south and the worst of the north meet. People call it Misery. And they live here.
Because of all of that, Missouri has a bad reputation among Americans.
I only spent a few days here on this trip, and I didn’t even come close to seeing the many places in this state that are described with such disdain. But what I saw told me a lot. It might have told me everything I needed to know about Missouri.

Pemiscot County is a county located in the southeastern Bootheel in the U.S. state of Missouri. As of the 2010 census, the population was 18,296. The largest city and county seat is Caruthersville. The county was officially organized on February 19, 1851, and is named for the local bayou, taken from the Fox dialect word, pem-eskaw, meaning "liquid mud". Bordering the Mississippi River and floodplain, the county has been devoted to agricultural development and commodity crops. With mechanization of agriculture, its population has declined since a peak in 1940.
Murphy Mound Archeological Site has one of the largest platform mounds in Missouri; it is a major earthwork of the Late Mississippian culture, which had settlement sites throughout the Mississippi Valley and tributaries. The site is privately owned and is not open to the public. The site may have been occupied from as early as 1200 CE and continuing to about 1541.
Geography
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 513 square miles (1,330km2), of which 493 square miles (1,280km2) is land and 21 square miles (54km2) (4.1%) is water. Fishing is a popular activity among residents in the area.
