Acadieville Parish was founded in 1868 by Acadian settlers who rushed to claim the provincial Crown Lands after it was revealed that the surveyed route for the Intercolonial Railway would pass through the area.

In 1869, the Intercolonial Railway's route was modified and it was constructed approximately 10 kilometres to the west.
