Nursery School in STL (NoCO). I have shared memories of brand new subdivision developments Inlived in at that time before heading to West County with others here from NoCO along with many other memories stemming from other family members living on in that area for a number of year with other NoCO alumni here. Hell, my folks were HS sweethearts at a NoCO school that would probably be surprising to you now.
My parents & every extended family member, except one sibling who was born in Columbia, MO (Boone County) & a Grandparent from Southern Illinois (hour or less almost due East of STL was born in STL.
Being born in another state has nothing to do with it, even if I lived there again some other times in my life, including another stretch of my childhood. I attended all of my HS here (actually from 5th onward - had another couple earlier years in Parkway elementary schools).
Stan Musial wasn't born in STL, but he's celebrated as a St. Louisian & I'm a lot like him :) There are many others.
