Jump to key moments of The Pensoneau-Caillot Pioneer House in East St. Louis, Illinois, was built in 1818 by Laurent Etienne Pensoneau, son of Etienne Pensoneau who constructed St. Clair County’s first courthouse in 1817. Laurent’s wife was a descendant of Jean Baptiste Saucier, designer of the second Fort de Chartres. The house stands in what was once Petit Village Francois, reflecting early French settlement in the region. It is recognized by the Illinois State Historical Society for its architectural and cultural significance in local pioneer history. historyillinois.org
