Born in Virginia in 1788, Ralph Clayton came to this area during the 1830's. When St. Louis County began to look for a new county seat after the city of St. Louis separated itself from the county, Clayton was able to convince them to use his community rather than Kirkwood or Mount Olive. He also agreed to give his land to the county, only requesting that the area of the new courthouse would be named for him. This is where the name of Clayton came from. On December 4, 1877, county residents voted to adopt Clayton's and Hanley's land as the new county seat. Clayton was a small town with few residents, so businesses in Clayton catered to the people who came in to conduct county business. By 1905, Clayton had its own schools, newspaper, trolley service, volunteer fire department, electric, water and phone lines. The City of Clayton was formally incorporated in February 1913. William Broadhead was chosen as the first mayor. He was the man who built the first residence in Clayton back in the 1880's. The incorporation date of Clayton: April 14, 1913 Return to Index Attractions Clayton attractions: Learn more about Clayton, Missouri Return to Index Contribute information free or for a small service charge for this community or any other community in the USA Be sure to include the name of the community and its state when contacting Key to the City as you are NOT directly contacting this community.
