General John J. Pershing Boyhood Home State Historic Site reviews
6If you have any interest in the history of General Pershing, this is a great place to start…
Very well maintained grounds and home. There is an impressive statue of the general. It's worth a stop by every history fan.
A tiny town with a big history and a very nice honor to Gen Pershing. Even on an off day (the extra things were closed) we were impressed with the statue and surrounding things that you could see and do outside on your own.
Absolutely love visiting this place. The people are extremely friendly. If you want your children to take a big step back in history this is definitely a sight to see. It is also good to visit the John Jay Pershing Museum and other sites while you are in town.
I look for off-the-beaten path places to visit and this is one of them. I needed to stretch my legs and this caught my eye. Laclede is a quiet little town, and the Pershing site is peaceful and has a nice park with picnic area. Lots of parking.
Went on a Sunday late in the day so tourist house wasn't open. Alot of great history here. Sat and read some of the wwI and wwII walls. Nice little history lesson.
