General Notes:
The inspiration for Missouri Day came from native Missourian and schoolteacher Anna Lee Brosius Korn . Having composed the former state song, "Missouri", she felt the state needed an entire day to recognize significant Missourians. It was created by State Resolution 9.040 in 1915 to "foster love for our state's history and to teach rising generations of boys and girls the glories of Missouri." Korn later, after moving to Oklahoma, founded Oklahoma Day as well as the Oklahoma Hall of Fame . 3
Anna married Frank Nicholas Korn on 28 Oct 1891 in Hamilton, Caldwell County, Missouri. (Frank Nicholas Korn was born in Sep 1870 in Missouri 2.)
