PLACE - Clarenceville: In the early French regime the area now known as Clarenceville was then called the Seigneurie de Foucault. After the Treaty of Paris signing in 1763, the lands in New France were transferred to British rule. In 1774 the area was leased to Col. Henry Caldwell and the area became known as Caldwells Manor, and at a later date Allard's Manor. It is only in 1822 that we find the area, after gouvernment proclamation, being called Saint Georges de Clarenceville. It must also be noted that once the religious element became involved in this area we find the Parish of Saint Thomas and the Parish of Saint George, segmenting the area of the Seigneurie de Foucault even further.
