The badge, pinned to a badge of the same size which reads, "Missouri," was found in the Pioneer Collection in the Archives, between pages 78 and 79 of the Pioneers' minute book for the period March 8, 1901 to February 5, 1909.

The minute book appears to have been donated to MHS by the Pioneers in 1949, although no confirmation of this has been found in the accession books., 1904
