Passed down through generations cake
Taille de Noyer was built by a French trader on a 350 acre walnut grove. The original log cabin was purchased by John Mullanphy, St. Louis’ first millionaire. It was just a cabin in the woods and became a 22 room mansion, serving five generations of the Mullanphy family for one hundred and forty years..
In 1960 the property was acquired by the Ferguson-Florissant School District for expansion of McClure High School. Taille de Noyer house was moved from its original site to be a little safer from the speeding cars on the highway, close to its main entrance.
I can guess why the school next to McClure is named Walnut Grove Elementary School.
