In the early 1820s the Bishop of the Louisiana Territory, Louis Du Bourg, invited the Society of Jesus to come to the newly admitted state of Missouri. In 1823, twelve young Belgian Jesuits and six African-American slaves, led by Father Quickenborne, left a struggling Jesuit plantation near White Marsh, Maryland and made their way west, first to the Ohio River, then by flatboat down the Ohio River, and then on foot across Illinois.
In 1823 Father Quikenborne and his group moved west to Missouri’s Florissant Valley, about twenty miles northwest of St. Louis, where Bishop Du Bourg had given the Jesuits a tract of land. With a subsidy from the government of President James Monroe, Van Quickenborne began a school for Native Americans.
