"La municipalité de la paroisse de Saint-Cléophas a été érigée le 7 octobre 1897. Le village est situé sur le parcours du chemin de fer Pacifique Canadien. La paroisse a été mise sous le patronage de saint Cléophas pour rappeler la mémoire de M. Cléophas Beausoleil, ancien député du comté de Berthier, qui s'intéressa activement à la fondation de cette paroisse. Du reste, le choix du saint patron fut fait conformément à la suggestion de Mgr Fabre, archevêque de Montréal, parce que lui-même avait une dévotion toute particulière pour saint Cléophas, disciple de Notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ."
