I always heard it was a east - west thing for the pronunciation of Missouri. On the east side of the state, it's Missouree, on the west side it's Missourah. No one I know says Missourah.

That's because you don't know anybody but Ste. Gen County Germans, who have a dialect all their own! All the people in my family who were my parents' age pronounced it "Missourah", and my Grandpa always said stuff like "narr" for narrow, and other Ozarkian words and pronunciations. HIs family came from Kentucky, as did many Ozarkers.
