Plese use this List to locate persons of interest.
And then this Link for the actual Records
Here is the FS Wiki which explains the records and their contents

During the 1960's and 1970's, a Gentleman named Sherman Lee Pompey did a lot of Military Research:
Quite a few of his works can be found in the FS Catalog: The focus of his research seems to surround the Civil War
along with the Cavalry and Infantry Troops who were involved.
There are a lot of Burial Records for those who fought and lost their lives from one cause or another.
This List is for all of the MO Records Available.
I have downloaded several of the Booklets:
They can all be found here

"Master list of Missouri Civil War Veteran Burials"
Note:
There are no Indexes: But, the format Mr Pompey used is consistent in that he lists the Names from the 'Top Down'
In other words, Officers [Rank] to Non-Comissioned & Enlisted Men last.
