Shipboard was 2-3 months to a United States port. Missouri in the early 1800’s was wilderness Missouri became a state in 1820. To get to Missouri you would need to get there by horse, wagon, or walk. By horse you can travel about 30 miles a day on a good day. Wagon would be much slower and many things could reflect how well travel went. Weather, getting lost, loosing items by crossing flooded rivers, snow storms if left too late in the summer. It would take several months of land travel. I would guess the fastest time would be 6 months. Total travel time about 9 -12 months from start to finish.
