Description From Owner:
  • The community, bay and point take their name from the river which the Micmac called Mespaak, 'overflowed,' likely referring to rising tides that flooded the river mouth.
  • A 1776 map shows the river as Robert Creek, but a dozen years later it appears as Mispeck Creek on another map. The post office opened here in 1861.
  • With permission from 'New Brunswick Place Names' David E. Scott 2009
