Marcel-François Richard (9 April 1847, Saint-Louis-de-Kent, New Brunswick – 18 June 1915, Rogersville, New Brunswick) was a Roman Catholic priest and a Canadian educator. He played an important part in the development of the Acadian people.

He died on 18 June 1915 at Rogersville, New Brunswick, where he is buried near the monument at Notre-Dame de l’Assomption (fr), which he himself had ordered built. In 1936, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Moncton was formed in Acadian canonical territory as he had wished. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcel-Fran%C3%A7ois_Richard
