II'm so excited that you found our site! I hope you enjoy the information that is provided, and find new information on your family. I strive to document all of the sources and hope you return to Pike County soon.

My name is Kimberly Taylor Morgan and I'm the new county coordinator as of Jul 2025 and I'm redoing the site and location of info.  Please be patient, I will work as quickly as I can

I have replaced the mailing list/active queries with a Pike County, Missouri Facebook Account

I'm currently revising the previous site so please be patient.  Here is the link to the former Pike website for your convenience

Howell County was named after Josiah Howell, a Pioneer Settler who settled in Howell County.  Howell County was formed from Oregon & parts of Ozark Counties on 2 Mar 1857.  Howell is comprised of the West Plains and it located in Southern Missouri.  For more about Howell County, please see About & History of Howell County under Resources.

The Chosen

We are the chosen. In each family there is one who seems called to find the ancestors. To put flesh on their bones and make them live again. To tell the family story and to feel that somehow they know and approve. Doing genealogy is not a cold gathering of facts but, instead, breathing life into all who have gone before. We are the story tellers of the tribe. All tribes have one. We have been called, as it were, by our genes. Those who have gone before cry out to us: Tell our story. So, we do. In finding them, we somehow find ourselves. How many graves have I stood before now and cried? I have lost count. How many times have I told the ancestors, "You have a wonderful family; you would be proud of us.". How many times have I walked up to a grave and felt somehow there was love there for me? I cannot say. It goes beyond just documenting facts. It goes to who I am, and why I do the things I do.

About Your CC

My name is Kimberly and I've been doing my family history for over 30 years.  I found USGenWeb and Rootsweb in 1999 and became a county coordinator for several counties.  I wasn't able to maintain the sites due to time constraints.  I returned in Dec 2024 and have been heavily involved with MOGenWeb and have adopted several counties.
