The founder of St. Louis, Missouri, was Pierre Laclede Liguest. He chose the site for the village in November of 1763 and began clearing the land three months later. He chose the name for the city in honor of the Crusader King, Louis IX of France. The site he cleared for the village is St. Louis's present-day location.
