Charette, Quebec
Charette () is a municipality of about 1000 people located in Maskinongé Regional County Municipality, in Quebec, Canada. History
Charette is named in honour of one of its first settlers, Édouard Charette, originally from Sainte-Ursule, who built a saw mill and flour mill around 1875. In 1910, the post office opened and in 1918, the Municipality of Charette was established when the Parish of Notre-Dame-des-Neiges (formed in 1914) was incorporated. Its railway station identified the place with the English name of Charette's Mills for a period of time. On December 31, 2001, Charette was added to the Maskinongé RCM when Le Centre-de-la-Mauricie Regional County Municipality was dissolved. Demographics
