In addition to the village of Cloridorme itself, the township's territory also includes the communities of Cloridorme-Ouest, Petite-Anse, Pointe-à-la-Frégate, and Saint-Yvon.
Etymology
Archival documents indicate that "Chlorydormes" was a place in the Jersey Islands, near the village of St John. Emigrants from Jersey have contributed to the primary population of the Gaspé area, including Cloridorme that was settled by a community of fishermen from Jersey. In particular, a certain Lewis Gibaut, friend of Georges Godfray of Grand-Étang (a neighboring village of Cloridorme) and who worked for William Hyman and Sons, returned to die in Chlorydormes, St-John, Jersey.[1][2]
The name has been in use since at least the middle of the 18th-century, as indicated by its use on a map of 1755, and by the 19th-century, the name Les Chlorydormes was used for 2 bays on the coast (now Cloridorme Bay[3] and Petit-Cloridorme Cove[4] where the Grand-Cloridorme and Petit-Cloridorme Rivers empty into the St. Lawrence respectively). The spelling modification and change from plural to singular occurred at the end of the 19th century.[5]
History
The area was first settled in 1838 by people from Montmagny. In 1853, a mission was set up, called Sainte-Cécile-de-Cloridorme. In 1871, the geographic township was formed, the following year the post office opened (called Chlorydormes, and changed to Cloridorme in 1921), and the year after that, the mission became a parish. In 1885, the Township Municipality of Cloridorme was established.[5]
In 1957, the township lost a portion of its territory when Petite-Vallée became a separate incorporated municipality.[6]
