CLAY COUNTY MN

General Info

Clay County was first known as Breckenridge County, named in honor of John C. Breckenridge as the area was established in 1858. Due to Breckenridge’s pro-southern stance during the Civil War, the county was renamed in honor of Senator Henry Clay in 1862. Fertile soil and access to the Red River attracted many settlers and Moorhead was selected as the county seat. By 1910 its population had reached 19,640 and Clay County continued to grow. By 1950 its population had reached 30,363 and the area continued to develop. Today Clay County is home to approximately 58,999 residents.
