This statue in Rogersville, New Brunswick, is a memorial to Msgr. Marcel-Francois-Richard.
In 1871, he founded the parish of Saint-François-de-Sales in what was
then, the community of Carleton. His choice of the Acadian Flag and Acadian National Hymn and Mary as the Patron Saint of
Acadia makes him, the official Father of Acadia.
Thus Rogersville is the Spiritual Heart of the culture. Carquet is considered
Capital of the culture Acadian.
