The area was inhabited by [[France|French]] settlers as early as 1710, at which time it was called ''L'anse Creuse''. (L'anse Creuse was also the name of a stop on the now-defunct interurban [[railroad]] off of Jefferson Ave near Nine Mile Road, and the name lives on today in the L'Anse Creuse Public Schools in central Macomb County, MI and L'Anse Creuse High School in [[Harrison Township, Michigan|Harrison Twp.]])
From 1843 until 1911, St. Clair Shores was a part of Erin Township, parts of which make up today's [[Eastpointe, Michigan|Eastpointe]],
A community called '''Eagle Pointe''' was established along the part of the lakeshore in 1916.<ref>Walter Romig, ''Michigan Place Names'', p. 167</ref>
