Breckenridge Hills History

The area on which the City of Breckenridge Hills is located was once a Spanish land grant given in the 1770's to a Canadian by the name of Louis Tesson Honore, Sr. In 1803, after the Louisiana Purchase, Hononre's son, Noel Honore, was officially given the land along with his business associate, James McDonald, by the US Government. The Honore family home, built on that original land grant, still stands at 3343 Edmundson Road. In 1821, Arch McDonald, James' son, was willed the land, but after only 8 years of ownership, he transferred the land to James Breckenridge who had settled in the area in 1821. At this point in time, the Honore estate, now belonging to James Breckenridge, began to be divided and given to other members of the Breckenridge family or to be sold. The Breckenridge family thus became an important influence in the development of the city, as well as giving the city its name.
