A Brief History of Normandy
Land speculator, J.B.C (Charles) Lucas, obtained property
from the Federal Government with land grants and he purchased the land
from victims of the New Madrid Earthquake of 1811. Charles, son of
Jean Baptiste Charles Lucas, named the land after the French coastal homeland of his Father --
Normandy, France.
Charles Lucas
settled on a huge tract of land that we now
know as Incarnate Word Academy. Charles met an untimely end when he was
killed in a second dual on Bloody Island with Thomas Hart Benton in 1817. Upon his
death, all of his land was left to his sister, Anne and his brother,
James. Anne later married Theodore Hunt who died in 1832.
Four years later, Anne married her deceased husband's brother, the
explorer Wilson Price
Hunt.
Anne Hunt built her home in 1820 and called it "The
Shelter". The Shelter was passed on to her daughter, Julia Hunt
Turner. Julia and her husband raised their 17 children at the
Shelter. In 1908, the home was destroyed by fire and rebuilt in
1909. The house, which was found at 7836 Natural Bridge, was built on the site of the
original homestead and for many years was used by Convent of Our Lady of the
Cenacle as a retreat house for women, before being taken over by the
Normandy School District. The house has since been torn down.
One of the truly historical sites in
Normandy still in existence is the "Hunt House". The Hunt House was the
home of Wilson Price Hunt, grandson of Anne Lucas Hunt. He build his
home at 7717 Natural Bridge, which was completed in 1904. He
finished his fine home just in time to entertain his friends that were
coming to St. Louis for the 1904 World's Fair.
Another grand home, the "Hardy House",
(also known as Wayside) was built
in Normandy around the turn of the century. John Mullanphy completed
this house at 415 Bermuda Road in 1893. The property was sold to
Walter Hardy in 1918. Hardy was a wealthy businessman and owner of
Hardy Salt Company of St. Louis. His wife donated the property to
the Normandy School District after his death. This site at the intersection
of Bermuda and Florissant Roads, had been used as the Normandy
School District Reading Clinic for years. There are
several other century old homes on the west end of Augusta.
By 1985, all the open land in
Normandy along the railroad
lines, with the exception of the 157 acres of the Hunt estate, had been
subdivided and offered for sale for residential and business use. It
became one of the first suburbs of the City of St. Louis.
"Street Suburb" was the nickname given to
growing communities in the county such as Normandy. The City Limits
Street Car was the line that served the Normandy area, transporting the
residents to the bustling commercial district of Wellston. Also
know as the Wellston Loop, residents could go shopping, banking or make a
transfer to another streetcar that would take them downtown or anywhere in
the City of St. Louis. (Erastus Wells built the first streetcar line to
the county and the City of Wellston is named after him.)
Normandy was officially incorporated as a Town in May of
1945. On May 10, 1977, Normandy annexed Berdell Hills. In June
1977, Normandy became a "Third Class City".
More in-depth information on the history of the Normandy
area is available at St. Louis County Library - Natural Bridge Branch;
Mercantile Library - UMSL; UMSL - Library; Lion of the Valley, a book by
James Neal Primm.
