The Archives is assisting in the effort to raise $14,000 for a series of bronze busts of Col. Alexander Doniphan, arguably the second most famous Clay Countian in our history. A life-size bust will be placed in the Hall of Famous Missourians in Jefferson City; a second bust has been proposed for the Clay County Administration Building in Liberty. Smaller busts may be presented to the Alexander Doniphan School and used for special awards.
Tax-deductible donations may be sent to the Clay County Archives, Doniphan Project, c/o Dr. Christian Sizemore, 1417 Woodbury Drive. Liberty, MO 64068.
