  • Bouchard, R. Larouche, 1995:t.p. ; p. 5 (the "municipalité de Larouche" could likely have owed its name to William Larouche (the father), one of the first pioneers who settled there with his family between 1888 and 1895. Another possibility for the name was the homage the community wanted to pay to the abbé Joseph Almas Larouche, curate of Saint-Bruno 1891-1906, for his efforts and contributions to the burgeonning colony)
