Breton, Settlement

Breton is located southwest of Edmonton, Alberta. The town of Breton received its name from Douglas Corney Breton who moved to Canada at the age of 20. In 1907, people began settling around Breton. The following years brought many more settlers from the areas of Millet, Wetaskiwin, Leduc and the United States. Black settlers from Oklahoma and its neighbouring states founded the town during the first part of the 20th century. Breton started in 1926 as a hamlet.
